    Indian School does go nearly everywhere but I'd stay off the 101 if you have any other options! Actually, you can get nearly anywhere with a combination of the 10 and 202. Shade, however, is at a premium and people will walk 1/2 a mile in 115 degree heat to park in a shady spot. Shade, or lack thereof, is the reason I got a car with a solar panel on the roof (truly) that runs a fan inside the vehicle to keep the inside temperature no hotter than the outside temperature. It was worth every penny.

    Donna has a Prius! And I'm thinking white with tan interior. (laughing)
    BTW, DB (my Tucson/kale) buddy has been working on his own zombie fan thing, but so far hasn't figured out a way to rig it, or get the hot air out the car. Now I'm old school - Saints logo windshield shade and crack the sunroof. *wink*

    haha, yes, I do have a Prius and it just happens to be blizzard pearl with a tan interior (what other color would anyone have in this climate?). I had to order that thing and it took 3 months to come in! Mind you, that was 9 years ago . . .

    Precisely, guessing you'd have a white car with a tan interior in Arizona isn't much of a stretch. But how do you explain that I know you have trouble at four-way stops - who does go first anyway? *wink*

    Nope, no trouble. You simply take turns two at a time. The nice thing about drivers in Arizona is that they are polite and actually wait their turn at 3 or 4 way stops.

    Especially in Scottsdale, where the driver I was behind waved everybody through until we were the only ones left - gracious to a fault. *wink*.
