    Arizona State ParksPhoenix AZ (November 27, 2012) – As always, we are planning a multitude of activities for the holidays at State Parks. “First Day” hikes on January 1, 2013 are always popular and you can start booking them now so you can be out walking on New Year’s Day. We know taking your family for a holiday excursion can be daunting when you add up all the costs for meals and hotels. But did you ever think it was odd you were traveling somewhere else when your family from cold states always wants to come to warm Arizona for the holidays? This year why not have individual family groups rent RVs so you can all head out around the state for a week of camping in your State Parks?

    20121127 deadhorseranchDiscover the local cuisine, go on a wine-tasting party in the Verde Valley, or take fishing poles and spend the week catching bass and trout. You can stay in little cabins at Dead Horse Ranch State Park in Cottonwood, or just get a cot and tent to sleep comfortably while enjoying our hot showers and flush toilets. Take your golf clubs, binoculars, hiking boots and boats for experiences throughout the state. At one of our Lake Havasu area parks you can rent canoes and kayaks for a sightseeing tour around a lake, rent a wave runner or paddleboard, or simply boat and fish on the water. During your time on the lake you can take a jet boating excursion up the Topock Gorge or head on down to the London Bridge in your boat for dinner.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
