For those of you that are interested in knowing the answers to the Arizona trivia questions here you go:
1. The cactus wren
2. Saguaro cactus blossom
3. Copper, cotton, citrus, climate, and (my favorite) cattle
4. Yavapai, 55 miles east south east of Prescott
5. Humphreys Peak - 12,633 feet
6. Yellow Palo Verde
7. Bolo tie
8. The 13 rays of red and gold on the top half of the flag represent both the 13 original colonies of the Union, and the rays of the Western setting sun. Red and gold were also the colors carried by Coronado's Spanish expedition in search of the Seven Cities of Cibola in 1540.
