I recognize some of these scenes. The sad part is I've lived here for just shy of 50yrs and have never been to the Grand Canyon. :cry:
Of course if you can say 'Haboob' and not giggle,,you might be from Arizona. :wink:

That is absolutely stunning. So beautiful, and the music is perfect.

Don't worry, I lived in Colorado for 11 years without going up Pike's Peak. And went skiing maybe 3 or 4 times.

Never lived in Colorado, but have been to the top of Pike's Peak. I have lived in Utah my whole life, with the exception of 2 years in Brasil, and I've never been skiing. I don't even have a desire to ski. Give me sun and golf, and Disney, over stupid snow.

I've lived in California most of my life, and I don't surf.

Great find !!
I spent three hours stopped on US 93 headed down to Vegas because of one a few years ago.
Among other damage, it actually washed out part of an Interstate.
I saw it way off to my east while I was traveling south and thought nothing about it until traffic stopped dead.
It had already gone through and did it's damage.
There was no Go Around and we just waited until the 93 got cleared.

I've always noticed that you don't get around to visiting the attractions in your home town/state. I've usually only seen the local attractions when people come to visit and I look for things to do with them.

This, I can never understand when people tell me they're visiting Salt Lake City because I can't think of anything to do here.
