Why We Love

Tony Ray

 / April 2, 2021

I have been an ambassador for Tucson for as long as I can remember. I love the amazing weather that allows me to do what I want almost every day of the year.
I love mountains and the blue skies and the smell of desert sage after a rainstorm. Oh, I love the monsoon thunder and lightning storms!

Most of all, I love the people of Tucson. The way they make a point to support local businesses and the way they treat strangers with kindness. I have traveled to many other beautiful cities and countries and met a lot of great people, but I wouldn’t live anywhere else. – Tony Ray
