Hi Brian ,

Thanks for the fun walk

[grandplans]

it was a fun walk.

[stevnashdabomb]

okay i live there on 48th and ray but that was a horrible trail to go on if you want a better trail that is way more fun send me a message.

[grandplans]

well, since then, I have went on the other side, going down baseline to central. it was great fun. I went up telegraph path once. LOL!! I almost died!!!! :0)

I see my house at 0:33, it's on the right!

[grandplans]

Cool! you live in a nice area.

[immortalxfrog]

Yes, I love Ahwatukee very much.:D

[grandplans]

I have a brother and sister in law who live there. I still like visiting it. I love going to Rock Bottom! I moved to the valley from Missouri about 5 years ago and was living in Ahwatukee but just recently, I moved to Chandler.

Nice video. I used to love walking and exploring places in the country, something I miss as I cannot do it so much now.

[grandplans]

it is fun walking through some of these trails. I admit it is taking me a while to get used to the desert. I still miss lush green woods and rivers and lakes where I'm from.

i love the usa, cant wait to get back and discover more of it ;p

[grandplans]

yeah, I have lived in the mid-west all my life. I've been here in Arizona about 5 years now. it's pretty cool. It's definitely more beautiful up in the mountains.

Looks like a fun hike! I love exploring.

[grandplans]

it is fun. even though I'm not in shape, it's still fun to explore.

Great video Brian, really enjoyed seeing all the scenery! I agree with your comment above mine, I too have never seen a cactus, those are like the old movie ones! At southern Nevada or North Arizona where I have been they don't have them, just squat ones and joshua trees! Glad to see you getting some exercise too!

[grandplans]

Hey Anthony!! yeah, I don't get excited about cactus anymore. i suppose the big suguaro cactus, the ones in this video, are pretty cool looking, but even where I live now, I don't see them often. My dad is in a lot better shape than I am. I like to try to get out and do some walking but my beer gut doesn't really like it. LOL!!!! Wait till two weeks from now, I'll be driving to a place that is more in the mountains for some trail walking up there. should be fun and I hope I don't die!

[askmisscris]

May seem weird but its SO cool to see wild growing cacti LOL I've never seen them before other than movies. Too cool!

[grandplans]

yeah, it was kinda neat for me too when I first moved here. I actually lived in Arizona in the early 80's and got my fill of cactus then. When I moved back here about 5 years ago, it wasn't quite as exciting. LOL! In about a week and a half, dad and I are going up, more so into the mountains and walk some of the trails up there as well. should be a blast. It's a lot greener there with more trees and rivers too.
