ION CRUISES

When I was 16 in Detroit, I looked forward to summer. Sunshine and warm weather finally arrived by June. The cold winter months were behind us. I would get in my 10 year old Mustang, “roll” down the windows, “push” in my cassette tape and play Don Henley’s song, “Boys of Summer.” (For our younger readers, it was remade by The Ataris, ironically my favorite video game consolel at the time). Yes, I’m old.

Living in Arizona is like having summer last all year long. You can drive down the street with the windows down and your favorite music playing on Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora the list goes on. What’s better than listening to your favorite artist is seeing them live. What’s better than seeing them live is seeing them for FREE! ION Arizona has teamed up with LIVE NATION to give away free tickets to many artists’ concerts including Madonna, P!NK, Sam Smith, and RuPaul’s “Werq the World Tour” to name a few. To enter, email IONArizona@me.com and enter the artist you want to see in the subject.

Enjoy this issue featuring an interview with the entertaining TikTok kitchen phenomenon, B. Dylan Hollis, author of the forthcoming book, Baking Yesteryear, plus our annual sexy swimsuit feature. We’d like to thank ES Collection for supplying these amazing suits which the models got to keep.

That’s it for me. I’m going for a drive, listen to my music and enjoy all that our wonderful state has to offer. Be safe, be kind, and have fun!
