Friends in AZ

Friends in AZ
I am very happy to share my knowledge with my friends. And I always feel a small sense of pride when one of them listens to my advice and is able to take a trip that they may have otherwise not been able to afford and/or have to pay for out-of-pocket.

I have some friends who are out in Arizona this week on a family vacation. They are visiting Sedona and the Grand Canyon. I just checked the weather at the Grand Canyon and it is COLD there this week. So I hope that my friends remembered to pack warm. 

 





But it sure looks pretty in winter.


They flew Southwest from BWI to Phoenix. They used SW miles to book their flights. They accrued those miles from having been approved for the Southwest credit card for both my friend and his wife.

They are not gung-ho about miles and points like me. I very rarely meet anyone who is. But they were savvy enough to take some of my advice and are now enjoying the fruits of those efforts.
