No matter the temperature, it’s always refreshing to leave the Phoenix airport. Maybe not refreshing in the traditional sense… there’s smells of jet fuel, diesel exhaust, and loud traffic noise. More often than not, it’s in the 90’s or 100’s. Amidst all that though, there is a creeping feeling in the air; rolling in from the desert. It’s a feeling of warmth, dryness, and the enveloping embrace that is home. It’s a refreshing sense of freedom and and fortitude. Great things are forged in the desert and leaving Phoenix Sky Harbor is the first step into it.
