1. And after some days my son Methuselah took a wife for his son Lamech, and she became
p. 151
pregnant by him and bore a son. 2. And his body was white as snow and red as the blooming of a rose, and the hair of his head †and his long locks were white as wool, and his eyes beautiful†. And when he opened his eyes, he lighted up the whole house like the sun, and the whole house was very bright. 3. And thereupon he arose in the hands of the midwife, opened his mouth, and †conversed with† the Lord of righteousness. 4. And his father Lamech was afraid of him and fled, and came to his father Methuselah. 5. And he said unto him: 'I have begotten a strange son, diverse from and unlike man, and resembling the sons of the God of heaven; and his nature is different and he is not like us, and his eyes are as the rays of the sun, and his countenance is glorious.
32 After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth.

The 7 Laws of Noah is the Key to World Peace
in Religion
What's the difference between the 7 Laws of Noah and every other system out there [from Capitalism, Communism, democracy, autocracy]? The 7 Laws of Noah is the basic moral code that Hashem [G-d] expects man to live by. People look for meaning and for different paths to connect to G-d. But with the 7 laws of Noah, man can stop the search because he/she [yes I used the term "man" generically to mean human beings, so women included as well] found that path. The 7 laws of Noah is the absolute light for the non-Jew. It'll bring world peace and will help bring about Moshiach [the Messiah].

Gen 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, (Num 13:33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.) when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. Gen 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. Gen 6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. Gen 6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

Is my lemon tree dead after freezing?
I have a dwarf (Meyers?) lemon tree in my yard that's been flourishing for years. I think this last brutal winter has done it in though. All the leaves are brown and dry. Is there any chance that it will come back? I didn't know enough to cover it to protect it from the freeze. :(
Take a look at the branches...are they green. Take your finger nail and scrape off a bit from a branch(if brown or a non-green color) or the trunk and see if there is green underneath. I have a Tarrocco blood orange that was affected by the cold (20 deg. and I didn't protect it)but it still have some green branches(and many brown ones...no leaves of course) so I'm waiting to see what happens, and there's a branch leafing out but it seems to be a water sprout coming from below the graft. At least that's a good sign that something is still alive.
Since you've had it for years, I's say it's worth waiting for if you see any signs of life. One thing I did for all my citrus was water them with B-1 (or use Superthrive) ...first they suffered from the hot summer, then the cold winter...it seemed like the genteel thing to do.

Seeking information about H. Vittatum
Would someone please teach me about H. Vittatum? From the looks of the bulb I purchased it looks like an outdoor, warm climate cultivar? It does not look like the rest of the bulbs that i have purchased thus far.
I live in West Virginia, Zone 6.
Thanks everybody.
Hi Marie,
If you have the real deal, H. vittatum is a species, rather than a cultivar, but some bulbs sold as H. vittatum may be hybrids. According to emaryllis.com, H. vittatum is the parent that lends its cold hardiness to H. johnsonii. I received 3 from RC and will leave one outdoors next winter, but zone 6 might be pushing it. Do you have some information that indicates it can handle zone 6?
Bill, the bulb came from the Amaryllis Man in Florida, so I doubt that it would be cold hardy for here We have had temperatures in the -degrees, which indicates to me that it would not survive.
it is a smaller bulb, not prepared like the rest that I have. The roots are fresh and moist. The top has not been cut, and fresh leaves are sprouting.
Will the plant be ok in a pot? Is it one that does best with a rest period. If so, what kind? Or can it grow as an evergreen and allowed to bloom as it will?
I purchased the bulb because i liked the shape and looks of the flower.
If it were mine and it has fresh roots and is sprouting leaves as you say I would pot it up immediately. I do think you can grow this successfully in a pot and it will decide on its own whether or not it wants to grow as an evergreen.
Now this is the type of bulb, dug from someone's yard that you should keep away from your other bulbs until you're sure that it is virus free. That wouldn't be until after you put it out in the hot summer sun for several months.
Of course in a perfect with with plenty of room we should do this to all our new bulbs but...
Now I have had good luck with this type of bulb (dug from people's yards) purchased on EBay but I would do this if I were you. I always do.
Good luck with your bulb. Vittatums are not all created equal. Some are even red if you look it up on the Internet and some have red/raspberry throats which is the version I have.
This post was edited by dondeldux on Fri, Mar 7, 14 at 19:47
Donna, thank you so much!!!!
Read your post at lunch and came right home this evening and potted her up.
I will keep her separate since it is not a prepared bulb. The ebay picture showed a white with pinkish red veining. It shows a green throat.
I have attached the link (if it will let you) if you want to look at the color.
This is my version. I bought this from EBay but growing in someone's yard in California; they had dozens of them and I don't know for sure if it's an authentic vittatum but I've found some pictures on the Internet that do match but have also seen many that match yours and Oleg's too. The one I bought wasn't sold as vittatum so maybe I just wished it to be! I never did get a side view of mine though.
I would guess yours could be one of the many faces of vittatum. Your first picture shows a more orange red that possibly has too much color for vittatum which makes me doubt that it is vittatum but your second picture looks more like the other pictures posted with a more raspberry red and the coloration is more sparse. Are these both pictures of the same bulb?
I wonder if one of us any truly has a vittatum so maybe we should just all assume that we do seeing the variability so far. The shape of your flowers is very beautiful, in the first photo particularly!
I'll bet that if all of us posted our vittatums there would be noticeable differences in them all as there seems to be so far!!

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Down by two early, Jets can't come back against Habs
There's not much point putting the bandwagon in drive if the engine's not running.
The Winnipeg Jets had these things out of order once against Tuesday night at the MTS Centre, beginning with a sleepwalk before building it into an NHL effort by the end of the first period.
By then, however, the Montreal Canadiens had the two goals they needed and cruised to a 3-0 victory, with goalie Carey Price coolly taking care of a few spurts of urgent Winnipeg pressure.
The first two minutes of the game saw the Habs with the puck almost exclusively and Brandon Prust deposited the first goal on a backboard rebound.
P.K. Subban's wicked one-time point blast past the 11-minute mark turned out to be the death blow from which the Jets just couldn't recover, and Daniel Briere took advantage of the empty net with 1:18 to play.
In between, it was about 46 minutes of Winnipeg frustration.
"You've got to get it stopped, that's the first thing you have to do," Jets coach Claude Noel said about the first few minutes of the game and of Montreal possession. "We had a couple of opportunities, even in the first shift, to get it stopped and win a battle and get in support position to get it stopped, and we didn't.
"We swatted, batted and reached and against a team like that, they just execute passes and they get it done.
"Before you know it, it's in your net."
The result leaves the Jets with four losses in their last five starts, dropping the season mark to 3-4. And it's now a sad-looking 1-7 vs. Montreal since the Jets 2.0 era began two years ago.
Price of success
Price won his third game of the season with 36 saves for the shutout and a second straight excellent effort. He backstopped a 4-1 win in Vancouver on Friday.
Was he in the Jets' heads?
"No, I mean, I had him on that one and the puck just rolled off my stick," said Jets captain Andrew Ladd, who had two of Winnipeg's best in-close opportunities. "That happens. Obviously we would have liked to put a couple of those in the back of the net.
"Sometimes they just don't go in."
Centre Mark Scheifele, who had four shots on the night, also said no.
"No I don't think so," Scheifele said. "We took our regular shots, trying to make good shots, but he obviously made some good saves and we've just got to be better.
"We didn't test him enough."
Isn't buying it
For a second time in three games, the Jets had plenty of jam once the horse was out of the barn. They put their foot on the gas pedal last Friday when down 4-1 to Dallas.
What's that worth? Hard to tell what's real when the opposition is sitting on a healthy lead.
"We outshot them (36-25) but really, I think that's a misjudgement of the way we played," Noel said. "We couldn't generate a whole lot. We got some shots on net but they blocked a lot and we didn't get enough through, get enough traffic."
Said Ladd: "Not a great way to get off the start of the game again. We keep digging ourselves a hole and you have to fight and claw and maybe get outside your game a little bit to get back in it.
"That's not the way we want to play.
"I think from our standpoint, a little less thinking and little more reacting is going to help us in that regard."
Aiding the enemy
The blocked-shots tally told a tale on Tuesday.
Montreal won there handily, 26-10.
"We didn't have a lot of great chances in the game," Noel said. "When you look at the scoring chances for our team, he (Price) saw a lot of pucks, able to get it stopped quickly.
"We want to pound shots from the blue-line, just need to get them through. When people are there and paying the price to screen the goalie, those are the times when you need to get it through.
"They blocked a lot of shots and we helped them. That's the way I look at it."

Wyndham Worldwide achieved revenue of US$1.3 billion for the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 7.0% on the same period in 2013. Adjusted net income reached US$150 million compared to US$133 in 2013. The groups hotel business, Wyndham Hotel Group (WHG), saw an 8.0% increase in second-quarter revenue to US$283 million, owing predominantly to high RevPAR results; although international RevPAR fell by 1.8%, domestic RevPAR rose by 8.8%, leading to an overall system-wide increase of 5.6%. WHGs adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was US$87 million, a 12.0% increase on 2013.
Starwood Reports A Second-Quarter Rise In Net Income
Starwood Hotels & Resorts has reported an adjusted EBITDA of US$324 million for the second quarter of 2014.

Management fees, franchise fees and other income increased by 10.2% on 2013. During the second quarter the group opened 19 hotels and resorts (around 3,800 rooms) and signed 45 management and franchise agreements. As we look ahead to the balance of the year, we expect that global trend lines will fuel demand for high-end travel. In our view, rising wealth, urbanization, digital connectivity and expansion of global businesses will drive demand for our brands, said Frits van Paasschen, Starwoods chief executive officer.

Why does the Evangelical Covenant Church have a lot of retirement homes?
It goes back to Sweden, when we were part of the Lutheran Church. In small Bible study groups, we read about compassion for the poor. That relationship is part of our DNA: If you love God, you'll love your neighbor.
I take a trip to the ocean, either the Atlantic, or the real one, the Pacific (smile). Oregon is my favorite state. It has an ocean, mountains, rivers, valleys and waterfalls.
Favorite TV shows?
The CSIs. I'm fascinated with forensics.
Favorite movies?
Away From Her, about a woman who develops dementia, and how her husband has to grapple with the issues. We have a number of couples here where they have to deal with dementia. The film really hit home.
Favorite music/performers?
The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir and gospel music. It tells a story. I did a paper in seminary on the roots of gospel.
Do you have a hero?
One is my great-grandmother, a missionary in Zululand.
When I went on a teaching mission in Ethiopia, the people there saw a picture of my great-grandmother in front of the hut where they lived. It was the same hut style. They said, "You must be our sister."
Another hero of mine is Sojourner Truth. She was a Christian and an articulate speaker, advocating abolition and women's rights.
What person in history would you like most to meet?
Paul. It would be interesting to sit and talk with him. I struggled with him awhile, over issues like the role of women and submission.
I'd like to know what he meant for specific situations in churches he was dealing with, and what he meant generally.
When I was younger, I was very shy. I had to work through issues of leadership and patriarchy.
What would you do if you had a year off?

Cu Chi Tunnels Small Group Adventure Tour from Ho Chi Minh City
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Cu Chi Tunnels Small Group Adventure Tour from Ho Chi Minh City. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
English speaking tour guide, funny and very informative. Lovely nature, the tour was so real, it was shocking to see what went on. This tour is a must to understand a small but important part of history
My husband really liked the tour. I also would like to say thanks to our guide who got us a doctor to take a look at my foot after an ankle sprain. No broken bones just a sprain.
Awesome tour! Got to see so much of the tunnels and even shoot an m16! Would definitely recommend.. It's too hard to get to the Tunnels from Ho Chi Minh independently.
Tour was amazing and my guide was so nice and friendly and had so much interesting information and she made some good jokes too
This tour was amazing!
Really interesting, definitely a trip worth doing...Our guide Linda was great!
Really fun and informative. Must do if youre coming to HCMC.
It was great! Loved the stop before the tunnels, too and LOVED our tour guide Anna!
Informative and interesting - the insight of the guide made this a very good day.
Very impressed with our guide - Lot - who was not only well-informed but funny and very caring.
Excellent! Thank you Mary for being a wonderful guide. The Cu Chi Tunnel tour is definitely a must if you are in Ho Chi Minh where you get to learn about how ingenious the VC was. I was truly, truly amazed. We also got to visit a farm/village site where we saw how rice paper and rubber were made. We even fed some pigs! I enjoyed myself thoroughly and would definitely recommend any one who is interested to go for this tour. Worth it! :)
Our guide Thanh was excellent as he covered details of the cu chi tunnels with personal tales of struggle with his family during the war times.
Very wonderful tour, the company and guides are very accommodating and speak great English, I did four tours with them!!!
The tour was fantastic. I think our tour guide was Thahn or Thang? (I'm sorry I'm not sure about the spelling, I apologize) I'm not sure about his name but he was very knowledgeable, funny, professional and just a really nice guy! He was waiting for us at our meeting spot in the morning so that was impressive that he was punctual. We left on time and returned on time, a wonderful tour guide.
This is definitely a must do in Vietnam. Thank you to our Great Guide at Tour East.

spring books 1999
This splendid and judiciously selected collection of sermons begins and ends in the promised land. Puritan Robert Cushman's sermon is the earliest extant sermon preached on American soil and the first to be printed. Given in Plymouth in 1621, it launches the American quest for the promised land with a heartfelt appeal to communal love and care.
Several years have passed since I last encountered a book by Annie Dillard, but her images remain as strong in the memory as Proust's madeleine. Her gaze concentrates on the ordinary until it is transformed into the transcendent: a tree so intensely colored that it gives off light; a sky's invisible clouds revealed only in reflected images on the surface of a glassy lake; a bowl of pond water where one-celled creatures are visible to the naked eye.
The literary critic John Bayley has written a deeply affecting lament for his late wife, the philosopher and novelist Iris Murdoch, as she disappeared into the insidious fog of Alzheimer's. She died at roughly the same time the book was published, in January of this year. Yet Bayley's book is not only a threnody; it is also an epithalamium, a nuptial hymn offered in praise of their 40-some years of marriage.

Sales. On The Twenty-Sided Sorceress. Cause readers are awesome and apparently you guys really like Jade. Yay.
So thank you, everyone. You all rock.
Sales. On The Twenty-Sided Sorceress. Cause readers are awesome and apparently you guys really like Jade. Yay.
So thank you, everyone. You all rock.
The first book in The Twenty-Sided Sorceress is now in audio, read by the very talented Folly Blaine.
I'm doing a little experiment, with some help from a bookstore called Powell's Books. They are the largest independent bookstore in the country and totally awesome.
So here is how it works. The Powell's at Cedar Hills Crossing is carrying some of my books (after a very successful signing back in November) and I made a trip in to sign them. So there are a very limited number of copies available, signed, right now. If this works and people want more signed books, Powell's and I can coordinate more orders and I'll make another trip to get stuff signed.
Below I've put book covers for the books that are available. Each cover links to the Powell's website. Click the link of the book you want a signed copy of, and buy it! Powell's ships pretty much everywhere, I think. Here is the slightly tricky part: you want to check the sale page and make sure the book is still listed as in stock at Beaverton, or your copy will be shipped from the warehouse and won't be signed. So make sure it says in stock. Quantities are limited as this is an experiment.
Here are the books you can choose from:
Don't miss book 5, the showdown between Jade and Samir! Book 5 drops on March 10th, 2015.
Pre-order it on Amazon Here.
Pre-order on Barnes & Noble Here.
Pre-order on iTunes/iBooks Here.
New release day! Book 4 in The Twenty-Sided Sorceress series is live on all sellers!
The enemy of my enemy is my enemy's enemy. Nothing more…
Demon hounds. Celtic legends coming to life. Angry druids.
Just what gamer and sorceress Jade Crow needs to help her days feel complete. All her hits will have to be crits to get out of this one as enemies and friends collide and the lines between the two blur.
Hunting Season is the fourth book in The Twenty-Sided Sorceress urban fantasy series.
Book five in The Twenty-Sided Sorceress series will be titled Heartache and here's the awesome cover from Ravven:
Book five will release sometime in Spring 2015. I'll have the exact date and a pre-order link sometime around the release of book four, which is December 9th (not so far away now).
In the Pacific Northwest? Want to see me talk about whatever? Or come get a signed copy of one of my books?
I'll be at Powell's Books at Cedar Hills Crossing on November 9th at 4pm signing books (as will an awesome line-up of other SF/Fantasy authors!). Get the details here: http://www.powells.com/events/6272/

The label's signature ripstop nylon bags were originally conceived as superdurable, reusable grocery totes. But fans of their cool color palette and clever construction—each one can hold up to 50 pounds and folds into a 5" square pouch—quickly began stuffing them with more than just produce.

9ELECTRIC FRIENDS & FANS…. We'd like to wish all of you a very read more
The new lyric video for Bullet Tooth is out and can be seen read more
9ELECTRIC color their hard rock with cutting edge electronic influences, blending arena power with digital mayhem for a sonic assault that pulses neon and exudes energy. The Hollywood quartet unveiled their sound at The Roxy Theatre in 2011, and have since become one of the Sunset Strip's biggest draws with their manic,
high-energy performances accompanied by rave-like lighting and synchronized video projections, that turn the band's adrenalized concerts into mind-blowing experiences.
It's a dance party that rocks!

I gave this hotel a 5 star review and I stand by it. But you need to know there are a few quirks, although, I think these quirks make it all the better. 1st, you should have your own car and preferably a 4 wheel unit. The dirt road is rough with steep hills. If the road is wet it is going to be very difficult to get in or our. 2nd the drive up the road takes just as long as it does to get into La Fortuna. 3rd, the cabin we stayed in is plain and a little buggy, although it didn't bother me but it might bother others. We were in a cabin away from the main building which was nice and quiet, there were a few bugs inside, but who cares, you are in the rainforest and they don't bother you. The views of Mt Arenal are truly amazing from this hotel and next time we come we will definitely be staying here again. Also, the food was nice although dinner was a bit pricey.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The Park Princess of the Moon Ecolodge is nestled in a lush tropical plant farm with a great location. This magical place is unusual, with more than 100 types of fruit trees, including many threatened and endangered species. The area is one of the most biodiverse and fertile in the world so wonderful to understand, observe and experience wildlife and nature. The aim is to integrate the principles of permaculture and creating a lifestyle self-sufficient and sustainable in harmony with the local biodiversity. Swimming pools, waterfalls, jacuzzi and many hiking trails on the farm as well as many other activities in the area. This is an interesting place for a honeymoon or a romantic adventure. ... more less

- Princesa De La Luna Eco Lodge Costa Rica/Arenal Volcano National Park

It's always hot and sunny in Phoenix.
Luggage and bags: Pack light. You're not going to find a lot of souvenirs here and unless you're from another hot place, you're going to want to wear virtually nothing to survive - especially in the summer. A single duffle bag could fit enough for more than a weekend.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: There are a ton of hiking and camping opportunities so boots are a plus. Don't wear thin shoes, either - in the summer, the sidewalks get really hot and can burn your feet through your soles! You won't need a jacket if staying south of Payson, either.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: If hiking or staying out doors, make sure you bring plenty of sunblock. In Arizona, it's easily found in much higher SPFs than in most places with less sunlight so visit Walgreens or CVS once you're in town and stock up. Bug repellent isn't as necessary here but watch out for more deadly bites - snakes, spiders and scorpions are in abundance.
Photo Equipment: There are a ton of great photo opportunities of desert landscaping you won't find anywhere else in the world. The Sonoran Desert is a pretty unique place. Also, if you have it, have your sun filter lenses handy - the sun gets pretty bright.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: All easy enough to find in town but if you already have your own, you'll definitely need a tarp to lay under your tent - even in the forest, it gets rocky and that's the last thing you want to be feeling through the night. A lot of the man-made lakes in Arizona are outfitted with swimming areas and docks, too. Fishing for trout is common.
Miscellaneous: Just remember it's a desert and you'll be fine.
Pack for the desert!
Luggage and bags: I prefer small carry on luggage, I drove from LA to Phoenix and had 4 other people in our SUV then flew home. It would have saved us a lot of room if I packed lite (but I didn't) I was only there for 3 days and packed for 3 weeks. Really stunck when I flew home and had to pay all the baggage fees!
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Shorts! Dresses, and tennis shoes. (I wore flip flops and it was SO hot and the sun is so strong it burnt my feet! Also a hat its SO bright even with sunglasses.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Sunscreen! I should have worn a lot more than I did!
Photo Equipment: Small digital camera, fits easy in your purse or a guys pocket and the heat cant hurt the film!
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: I suggest you go to a pool! SO beach towels, here you come!
- Road Trip
A Diverse Climate...study up
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: We began our trip in Phoenix, where it was in the high 70's to low 80's in the month of April; afterwhich our travel plans took us to Flagstaff, the Grand Canyon, back to Flagstaff again and finally to Sedona--all within a week's time.
We dressed in shorts in Phoenix, I had to buy a sweatshirt at the Grand Canyon where we experienced snow flurries, when we drove back to Flagstaff I had to purchase a light fleece jacket for layering, then we were back to short sleeves in Sedona. I didn't do my homework very well, don't make the same mistake...
Spring apparently can bring very diverse weather conditions.
I Recommend This Guide Book!
Miscellaneous: Moon Handbooks have proved to be exceptional guidebooks on our travels. ARIZONA by Bill Weir was a wonderful research tool when planning our trip to the Grand Canyon and other parts of this state.
The publisher is Avalon Travel and the ISBN # is 1-56691-689-5. The price was $21.95, but I purchased it at Barnes and Noble and received a discount on it. It was worth the price, believe me!
- Road Trip
Must bring lots of lotion
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Wear light colored breathable clothing, even in November because the weather can still be in the 80's until late November. If you are visiting in the winter bring a jacket but nothing too heavy unless you plan on going to Norhtern Arizona to ski. But in the summer bring a hat, shades are a must and shorts and comfortable shoes.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Do not forget sunscreen and plenty of lotion and hair moisterizer because the air is really dry. If your eyes are sensitive it may help to carry eye drops because the dust can be irritatng especially if you wear contacts.
Photo Equipment: Be sure to bring film, but if you forget, there are plenty of grocery stores and convenience stores around to buy more at an affordable price

Packing List
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: In the months of May through September it can get Very warm-to just downright- miserably hot, during the day. At night depending on your altitude can get chilly. Up in Northern Arizona the nights are cooler. In Phoenix during the 'Spring' and 'Fall' there can be as much as a 40-50 degree temperature change between the night and day.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Go equipped with both warm and cold clothing! Wear Tennis Shoes, or something like them.
Miscellaneous: In the summer months Check tires, water, and oil, in your vehicle frequently.
Check out the Arizona Office of Tourism website for great tips, etc...
Miscellaneous: During the summer months (May - Sept), NEVER EVER go anywhere without a lot of water readily available. Because it is dry, you don't notice the fluids leaving the body that are being sweated off. A small 5' 90 lb lady told me how her 45 minute jog with a quart of water almost turned out to not be enough. People who have problems or die are invariably tourists.
Sun Block -- SPF 30 or HIGHER!
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Sun Block -- even if you have a "base" tan or have an olive complexion, the Phoenix sun can be brutal. If you do not take precautions you will get a sunburn. Period. I highly recommend a waterproof sunblock, SPF 30 or even higher. After you get out of the shower in the morning, slather it all over your body, just like a moisturizer. Use about 1 oz or a shot glass-ful. Do this before you get dressed and you'll lessen your chances of missing a spot and give the sunblock a chance to soak in and properly bond with your skin. Don't forget the back of your neck and knees, the tops of your ears, and your lips -- you'll need a good sunblock for your lips, too. Wear a hat, too. You won't regret it. And large, dark sunglasses. You'll can feel like a movie star (think mirrored lenses) and still be protected. A tell-tale sunburn -- from the golf course, or the pool, or hiking, or whatever -- is a sure sign that you are a "tourist".
- Family Travel
- Budget Travel
- Business Travel
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Casual clothes like tees and shorts
Photo Equipment: If you are interested in nature and photography then this definitely a place for you. The sunsets here are very beautiful and every evening the sky looks very beautiful and nice bcoz of the different sunset colors.
things to bring or buy when you are here
Luggage and bags: suitcase
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: sandels and sports shoes
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: i am sure you can get most things here. But a good moisteriser and suntan lotion is probably essential with the sun
Photo Equipment: good camera
Miscellaneous: Sunglasses(even when the sun is behind the clouds you will need them, especially when you are driving)
bring warm clothes
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: always have warm clothes, i.e., jacket or sweater, for the evenings. It may be 80 deg during the day, but once the sun sets the temp can drop into the 50s or 40s, so be prepared.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: moisturizer!! for those of us who are not from dry climates, you'll be amazed how dry your skin can get. Again, be prepared.
Packing List
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Light clothes for the summer.. ...For the winter, layering is the best thing. So sweaters with t-shirts and jackets should be enough. Be prepared for strong sun in the summer...longsleeves seem impracticle because of the heat, but can be very helpful for protection against sunburn if you expect to go hiking for long periods. Also, you'll be so glad if bring a sun hat. There's no shade out here & it doesn't take long to get sick of the sun beating on your head and being in your eyes. It's a dry heat (cliche), so wearing longsleeves isn't as bad as it seems. Hiking boots if you plan, it's very rocky out here, otherwise, just comfy shoes for shopping.
Photo Equipment: Low speed film is better for out here, because the sun's so bright. You get better grain anyway & the sky is so blue you'll want to drink it.
Miscellaneous: Sunscreen, water, lip balm.
Packing List
Luggage and bags: any kind.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Ok these are musts for the phoenix summer: sunglasses, and a high sunblock, you can get sunburned really easily.
Shorts and light clothes, the dry heat is not nice with people.
Photo Equipment: there's so much sun, the pictures you take could be overesposed.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Sunglasses and sunblock
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Make sure you bring sunblock. Do not mess with the sun in Arizona. If you don't put on sunblock all the time you will soon be burned.
Packing List
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Sunblock, a (nice) hat or sunglasses are very necessary in these sunny surroundings. Not for nothing the Phoenix-Scottsdale-area is called 'The Valley of the Sun'.
