Sedona: Red Rocks & a Snowy Valley

Approaching Sedona midday

Monday, Jan 30…

Happy Birthday, Greg!  At breakfast I gave him 60 wine bottles in a thousand pieces. J Uneventful drive north to Sedona (the last spot I’m revisiting since October). Washed the car so we could do a couple side trips. Greg has great car-washing stuff, including a towel-size synthetic chamois that makes drying quick and easy (and when you’re done, you just wring it out and stuff it back in its plastic container).

Skeleton trees heading 
into Oak Creek Canyon

...into the valley of the
shadow of death.

Probably a good 1000' down.

Lots of rocks, but also lots of green.

Later in the afternoon we did a short Red Rocks Loop drive. The geology here has to be experienced to be fully appreciated.

Approaching sunset.

BlogThoughts... It was 30° this morning (there was ice in our water hose). By the time we were in Sedona, however, the temp was in the 60s. It was a gorgeous afternoon!
