Arizona, The Grand Canyon State.

 State Motto -   " God Enriches (Ditat Deus) "

On February 14, 1912, President William Howard Taft signed a proclamation declaring Arizona to be the 48th State of the Union.

February 14, 2011 will mark Arizona’s 99th Statehood Day http://www.arizona100.org/

The Grand Canyon may keep me busy for a very long time.
