Baja Arizona

Baja Arizona We call it Baja Arizona, the land beneath the Gila, Could we be so lucky someday that we’ll see ya’? Mountains, deserts, our verdant valleys bloom, No matter where you go, Baja has the room. Aspens quake above the clouds, golden in the sun, Take a hike, ride a horse, ya’ gotta haveContinue reading “Baja Arizona”
