We Discover Rancho Arroyo’s Hidden Charm! Tucked behind a discreet gate in the heart of Phoenix, lies Rancho Arroyo a 1920’s Pueblo Revival home. Currently the home of interior design professional Scott Burdick and his home is so special that it’s listed on the National Register of Historic Places, showcasing its unique cultural and architectural significance. The property’s landscape echoes natural desert wash with native plantings. The walkable garden includes a fountain-fed stream that runs from the front gate to the back of the property. Scott is the Board Chair of DBG and coincidentally the original owner of Rancho Arroyo, was former DBG director Hubert Earle.

For more than six decades Mac Schweitzer’s work as a pioneering female artist was hidden from view. Our three-person private docent tour of the Mac Schweitzer exhibit at the Western Spirit Museum provided an intimate and engaging experience. With a small group, we were able to ask in-depth questions and enjoy thoughtful discussion with our guides, who shared insights into Schweitzer’s background and the historical context surrounding her work. The opening of a new exhibit called “Still in the Saddle: A New History of the Hollywood Western” is scheduled to debut on January 29 at the museum.

Big Cats of Arizona

We visited the new Big Cats of Arizona habitat with ample space for mountain lions and jaguars. The two jaguars, Caipora and Saban, got a habitat increase by more than double their current living situation. Mystic, a mountain lion, was found as an abandoned orphan 17 years ago in South Dakota has a new space approximately five-times the size of her current home. The Big Cats of Arizona habitat facilitate guest viewing like never before on the Arizona Trail. These intriguing desert cats are rarely seen in the wild, so viewing from different angles will improve visibility for guests.  Check it out!!
