<h1>Many Reasons To Call Scottsdale Home</h1><strong> Author: <a href='http://www.articleseen.com/profile_Peter Vatistas.aspx'>Peter Vatistas</a></strong><br /><p>Downtown Scottsdale real estate is much more than the West’s “Most Western Town.” It is also shopping, galleries, fine food, music, theaters, great events and, yes, even singing cowboys. Scottsdale is a wonderful, friendly and special place to call home. When longing for fresh, organic vegetables locally grown in Arizona soil, head to the farmer’s market on Brown Avenue and Second Street, which is held every Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Here is a place where an array of merchandise – from organic heirloom tomatoes, spinach, radishes, beans, fruit and home-made bakery items – for humans and, yes, your dogs and cats as well, can be found. Fresh flowers and a variety of local specialty items also are displayed in the open-air market. Try bringing your own recycled or reusable bags for the items you purchase. Merchants do offer reusable bags for sale or will provide you with a plastic bag, but walking away with organically grown produce in a plastic bag is just not right. On one particular day, I purchased my goods and caught up with some local Scottsdale friends and continued to my next destination. I turned down First Street and, directly in front of my car, was a horse-drawn carriage taking a group of smiling children and adults for a ride. Even more astounding, next to the carriage was a singing cowboy, atop a horse and with a guitar, serenading the passengers in the carriage. The look of glee upon all those faces in the carriage was one bundle of happiness, joy, delight, surprise and excitement. I rolled down the windows, not to only get a better view but also in hopeful anticipation of hearing the cowboy’s song. I watched as the procession continued down the street; the carriage proceeded across Scottsdale Road and the cowboy and his horse paraded up the sidewalk to the corner of Scottsdale Road and First Street. The cowboy, still strumming away on his guitar, continued to sing to a steadily growing crowd. Whether you drive, walk, bicycle or ride your motorcycle into downtown Scottsdale, you will be amazed at the unique local offerings available in this area that stretches from Chaparral Road to the north, Thomas Road to the south, Miller Road to the east and 68th Street to the west. One of the best ways to get around is to find a place to park and then hop on the free local trolley, known as Ollie the Trolley. This service runs every ten minutes and will give you an overview of the many sights. Don’t fret if you’re visiting during warmer weather - the trolleys are air-conditioned. You can check the City of Scottsdale’s website for updated information or call 480-421-1004. If you’re in the Old Town area, which runs from Scottsdale and Indian School roads to Brown Avenue and Second Street, you’ll want to take a ride with KC’s Classic Carriage & Wagons Express. Considered Arizona's best selection of the finest, most unique horse-drawn vehicles, KC’s provides you with a carriage and driver that will take you back in history as you ride through town.
