Sedona

50 years ago my mother and daddy visited Sedona and mother came home and declared Sedona the most beautiful place she had ever seen.  I concur. We rolled into Dead Horse State Park late on Monday evening and then spent the next 2 days exploring this fascinating place.  Not only is the setting gorgeous, they have art, mystical/energy vortices, elegant clothing shops, and interesting people.  They also have some of the highest price restaurants that neither of us wanted to try but might if we ever return.

We LOVED Sedona

 

You can pick this little house up for about $22 Million
 

These iron statues dot the town

The red rock and the green trees make for beautiful mountains

On the right, see Snoopy? He is lying on his dog house and on his nose is the leaning rock of Woodstock
 and up on top on the flat is Lucy with her squared head
The red rock is sand stone (not red clay like east TN) so it doesn't stain your clothes.
Explained to us that there was so much iron in the mountains that this color is iron that has rusted.

Montezuma Castle is a National Monument-- these are actual cliff houses and caves
Pueblo village that has been preserved from the 14th Century

The Montezuma Well was really interesting and beautiful
