Not sure on how far you are willing to drive but if you have an hour or so to kill and want a pretty drive... Payson is about an hour maybe an hour from Mesa. It's a wonderful drive. Very pretty and one of the best quilts store's I have seen.

it's well worth the drive and the ladies that work there are just wonderful.
