Hello all
I am headed to lewis prison in about ten days and was wondering if anyone had any hints, tips or warnigns as I am coming from a distance and am not sure what to expect, as well does anyone from the area suggest anything great to do in the area, shops or attractions?? just curious arri :)

Hi, what unit is your honey in? Mine's at Stiner-Red. He got transferred to AZ directly from Walla Walla (here in Washington State) last September and I haven't seen him since then. I can't help you out with visiting tips & warnings because I haven't been there yet. My first visit will be Sunday, Feb. 8th, so it looks like you will be going first, huh? Maybe when you get back you can fill me in. I have learned from other posts here that you definately do NOT want to wear brown pants, tan shirts or blue jeans. Isn't that stupid? No jeans!! Are you traveling far to get there? I'm taking a Monday off work so I can fly from Seattle to Phoenix on Saturday, visit on Sunday and then fly home on Monday. It was so much easier when I could just drive over the mountains! Anyway, let me know how it works out, okay?

hey there
he is in morey ,, I will be there ahead of you so I will warn you of any hurdles I have, I am coming from Toronto Ontario canada , so I have a plane ride ahead of me.
I have seen the brown and jeans warning but luckily I do not wear those colours so that is cool , the jeans suck but I own more pants then jeans BUT the shirts to collar bone will be my challenge , I decided to go for 9 days soo I end up seeing him two weekends and a few days too , the joy of coming from a far , thanks for the encouragement arri

I have visited in Morey- and have worn black jeans... Levis.... Let me know what questions you might have- I can try to answer them. you can't wear any jewlery really- one pair of earrings, and one ring. they make you shake your hair out- so, don't spend time doing it all up in a pony tail or anything- you have to stand and let a drug dog run past you. I have worn sweaters that have scooped collars- not up to my collar bone, and haven't had a problem. If you are coming from a long distance, he can put in for a "special visit" where you get to visit for 3 days in a row- he has to put it in 14 days in advance though....but then you can visit Fri, sat and Sun

Oh- and if you don't have a place to stay- I always stayed at the hospitality suities in Scottsdale- it is about a 45 minute drive to buckeye- but it is a nice area, and the hotel is great! It's cheap, clean, safe... like 40 a night, and you get free breakfast-cooked to order in the morning- a suite-with a mini kitchen, they have 3 pools, tennis court, basket ball courts, laundry rooms- and the best part is ....free cocktail hour from 5 to 6:30 every night! :) free drinks! out by the pool...whooo hoooo :)

thanks for the tip on ponytails, as i was considering that ,, I have long hair so thanks
he has put in for an extra visit and we have 4 days ... it is all cool there
I have a hotel with kitchen etc booked , it has internet too which i need and is cheap sooo i am smiling but thanks for all your help , everyone is giving me great ideas and confidence as I just have a rebellous streak when it comes to dress codes LOL thanks arri
