Quite a few, although some are closed for the summer. Last time I visited was October 2017 and I went on some other ones

Wow, now I know. I've lived here my entire life, it's quite difficult to think of the valley as a tourist destination. :)

I have an online pal from Wales I've known for like 20 years now (early days of Yahoo chatrooms) lol

Anyways, I recently became friends w his wife because she begged him to introduce us. She's like a HUGE fan of the American Southwest and went bonkers when I told her I've seen a real life Saguaro. She actually asked me if they are "soft" I felt bad telling her they "ouchie plants" lol

She's been dying to go to a rodeo and wants to go to Winslow to stand on the corner lol

She's been saving to come here and I told her she's welcome to stay w me...but her 2 sons play rugby and they went to a championship recently so she had to use most of the money to travel for them. :-(
