Q: What brought you to Prescott?
A: We moved to the Prescott area from Southern California in 2008. I was wanting a better life for my children and myself.
Q: How did you become interested in your career field?
A: My background is in marketing. In my last position I was traveling four to five days each week covering the entire state of Arizona; it was taking its toll on me.

After obsessing about flooring inside your home, you may think the garage is one area you don’t have to think about. That’s not necessarily the case. While this may sound like another burden of homeownership you’ll be glad you put some thought into this.
A plain concrete floor might suffice for a while, but it will eventually start to wear down under the load of heavy vehicles, power tools and all of the items that find their way into the garage. Stains will inevitably mar the surface as well, making the garage a less pleasant place for you and others to spend time.
Here are some options to co ..read more

Geoffrey Mix Johnson was the epitome of cowboy. He was raised on a ranch south of the Bear Paw Mountains in the Missouri Breaks of Montana, an environment where Charlie Russell also gained inspiration for his artistry.
Geoffrey understood his lifestyle was a blessing earned through years of sweat and tears, drought, bitter cold, scorching sun, low cattle prices and the high stakes of betting his livelihood that next year would be better.
He would often look in the face of adversity and say: “We are just renting a lifestyle.”
Geoffrey was involved with every facet o ..read more

It’s a faded photo album like many families had
With dust on the cover and pictures of the wife, two sons and the Dad
The pages are falling apart, but the story remains
Buried in the old pictures as they try to explain
The life of this family and one particular American boy
And the things that made him happy and brought him his joy
The father served his country for twenty years in the U.S. Marine Corp
The last ones in San Diego but the first four in the Second World War
Part of the greatest generation that we all admire and like
With a brand new Chrysler that on the back sai ..read more

Starting in 2009, the Chalk It Up! street festival has drawn throngs of amateur artists and a contingent of professionals to a colorful spring fling held in the parking lot behind the bank building at 201 N. Montezuma St.
The location has been a constant, even though a few things have changed around the family-friendly event over the last 15 years. It’s being held once again April 20 and 21, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., so everyone can cut loose and create their art as music fills the air.
After a three-year pandemic-related pause The La ..read more

Hikers use trekking (aka hiking) poles to provide stability on uneven terrain, relieve stress on
knees and joints, propel themselves forward on upward slopes and to keep themselves under
control when going downhill.
You can hike longer distances with less muscular fatigue with them. They’re a great accessory to
have, no matter your age or experience level.
But you can’t assume you know how to use them as soon as you take them out of the box — here
are a few do’s and don’ts to remember as you begin to explore the natural world with them.
Keep them well-adjusted

A beautiful area wild enough to be special but close enough to modern conveniences to keep our shortened attention spans engaged is trumpeted by a few people, and within a few years you must share it with thousands of other travelers.
