Kayaking @ Salt River
I’m hardly an outdoorsy person, but after seeing a pair of kayaks on sale at Costco, I thought, “Hmmm, that could be fun.” Find out (without the buyers remorse and storage problems) at Saguaro Lake Ranch, where you can choose from a 2 hour or a 4.5 hour, 13 mile trip.

Jason Hill’s “This City is Cool” show @ Lux Coffeebar
This time of year, it get more difficult to feel like Phoenix is cool. First, it’s hot outside. Second, due to aforementioned heat, there’s not a whole lot going on. Jason Hill’s photography of various spots in the Valley might re-ignite your love of the city.

Phoenix vintage: Blueberry Deluxe Boutique

Hollywood Regency might have moved to an antique mall farther down 7th Avenue, but the old vintage flavor is still in the ‘hood.

In the same Montecito strip mall a few doors down, Blueberry Deluxe Boutique, a funky new vintage shop, is selling women’s clothing & accessories and the occasional product by a new artist.

Blueberry Deluxe features a small, but well-edited collection of mid-priced findsĀ  (the dresses I liked ran around $40). Check it out — Blueberries are good for you.
