About Me
Welcome! Thank you for visiting the Arizona Edventures travel blog. My husband and I moved to Arizona as kids in the 1970’s (from Boston MA and Buffalo NY, respectively). We met at college in 1980 and since then we have spent a lot of time exploring every corner of the state together. Both of us were awe-struck by Arizona's unique beauty, scenic diversity, and colorful history. Now we enjoy teaching our children about the state’s history, geography, and environment while taking them to see the spectacular locations that we fondly remember. As homeschool parents, even our recreational activities become educational field trips. And after all these years, we still keep finding new places to discover! We invite you to share in our family’s adventures as we explore Arizona, the Southwest, and beyond.

The Happy Wanderer
Friedrich W. Möller
I love to go a-wandering Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, I love to wander by the stream I wave my hat to all I see, High overhead the skylarks wing, Oh, may I go a-wandering

My Favorite Places
Along the mountain track
And as I go, I love to sing,
My knapsack on my back.
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra
My knapsack on my back.
That dances in the sun,
So joyously it calls to me,
Come join my happy song.
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra . . .
And they wave back to me
And blackbirds call so loud and sweet
From ev'ry green wood tree.
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra . . .
They never rest at home,
But just like me they love to sing
As o'er the world we roam
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra . . .
Until the day I die,
Oh, may I always laugh and sing
Beneath God's clear blue sky.
Val-de-ri, val-de-ra . . .
