I want to finish up my Phoenix-Spring Training posts with a miscellany of interesting glimpses of the town. We weren't there for long, but got to see a good bit of the city and enjoyed the mild weather and the occasionally quirky sights.

| it's pretty easy to tell where they irrigate...view from the plane on the way in |
 |
nice view of downtown from the plane on the way home...
the stadium is what I still call "the BOB"* |
 |
| we had an appropriately cool rental car... |
 |
| ...that was almost the same color as the green cabs we saw all over |
 |
I thought the "Sky Harbor" airport was very nice...
here's my nephew riding the tram to the light rail with me upon my arrival |
 |
| street art on the platform...waiting for the light rail (the real feet are mine) |
 |
| more neat public art...a stylish caduceus |
 |
| handsome church and ubiquitous palm trees |
 |
| nice fountain in Scottsdale |
 |
| and a very nice restroom...who knew they have awards for things like this?! |
*It's now the really lame-sounding

Bank
One
Ballpark gave it a so much snappier nickname, don't you think?
