ARIZONA APPETITE<br />
There’s nothing like escaping to the warm, sunny desert in winter. Meandering trails through cacti and arid<br />
landscape heat up the soul during dreary months and moments. Al fresco dining, picnic lunches and sunset<br />
tapas welcome in spring and there’s nothing better than a grill-prepared dish, alongside Classic Western tunes<br />
and a perfectly-stoked fire.<br />

Rancho de la Osa<br />
This is a remote, luxury dude<br />
ranch and the most historic in<br />
Arizona. Rancho de la Osa has<br />
hosted U.S. Presidents, movie<br />
stars and my personal favorite,<br />
Pancho Villa. He attempted<br />
to take over the Ranch, and, a<br />
cannon ball from this attack<br />
is still on the property in their<br />
Hacienda. There’s nothing like<br />
saddling up, bar side, for a cold<br />
beer where legendary battles took<br />
place.<br />
Another incredible historic and<br />
modern-day experience is their<br />
location on the U.S. and Mexico<br />
border. You can take rides to<br />
see the border through wooded<br />
mesquite trails and low sandy<br />
washes. The Border Wall runs<br />
approximately four miles from the<br />
historic border crossing, where<br />
thousands of cattle and livestock<br />
were moved into the United States<br />
beginning in the early 1800s.<br />
