I grew up in Phoenix, there's so much to do there that I don't even know where to start. There's Cabela's and Sportsman's Warehouse to go waste money at. South Mountain Park. Lake Pleasant. Roosevelt Lake. The area around Sedona would make a great day trip, its one of the most scenic areas in the country. Jerome is a cool old mining town to go through. If you like golfing, there's practically a course every 10 miles in any direction, I think its city ordinance or something.
Scottsdale is becoming the new porn capital of America, so if you go there keep your camera ready because you never know what kind of exhibition you'll see.
