Arizona . . . it's a state of imagination,

built by myths, legends,

and windy tall tales.

Someone once called it "the geography of hope."

A magnet for people on the run

from the law, family,

a failure of one kind or another,

or in search of a dream.

Arizona has a history of desperate dream chasers

with dreams and schemes

of gold, silver,

land, cattle and salvation.

No doubt about it . . .

Arizona always has been,

and may always be,

the destination of

legends and dreamers.
