Even though its a bit warm, you can hike some of our local mountains in the middle of the city and catch some beautiful sunrises if you can wake up early.....and it won't get over 85 if you wake up early to do this.
We have some of the best golf courses in the nation
The hotel (Hyatt at Gainey Ranch) on the NE corner of Via de Ventura and Scottsdale Rd. has 5 miles of luxo swimming pools to hang out at...and then at night you can take the g/f to a restaurant there called Sondolo. Great Italian food there, and all the waiters there sing really well, and they sing to you personally all through dinner! You then get free passes from the restaurant to take a gandola ride through a man made river system on the back of the hotel, with you guessed it, a guy that paddles the boat for you and sings the whole way. Quite the night scene there as well with nice bars.
Don't forget we also have 4 major sports teams.....the Diamondbacks play in a pretty badass stadium worth checking out.
If you like Art, old town scottsdale has a ton of art stores there with some great pieces....and that also happens to be where there are many nice restaurants as well. At night time Old town scottsdale turns from toursity and shopping to the biggest club/bar/restaurant scene in AZ by far. Another place for good restaurants and clubs/bars is Mill Avenue in Tempe.
The dragstrips are always open on Fridays and Saturdays at either Firebird raceway or Speedworld raceway.
My g/f loves riding the 20+ mph go karts at Speedway Motorplex in Tempe.
If you have the time, a little over an hour away is relief from the heat and some badass red/pink rock formations in Sedona. If you go take the pink jeep tours. Definately a great escape.
If you can set a day aside for travel, hit up the Grand Canyon (about 3hrs away by car) in the morning and consider riding to the bottom followed by some of the best white water rafting in the southwest.
Sedona is about halfway between the Grand Canyon so you could hit that up before or after the Canyon.
