Our daughter, Kate, and son-in-law, Mike, were working their way back to Georgia from Oregon. Their route included a stop in Sedona, AZ. It was a little bit of a drive but when they were that close we were more than happy for the opportunity to visit them. There were no firm plans for the day, but we knew the trails around Sedona were dog-friendly and we knew of several options for dog-friendly dining. Sam was thrilled for the chance to hop in the back seat for a ride and we could visit without feeling guilty about leaving him alone all day - that's a win-win in my book.
We decided to show them Jerome, AZ. We walked around the hillside town, perused the shops including Joani's favorite kaleidoscope store and ate at the Haunted Hamburger. Strangely, I did not seem to capture any pictures of our Jerome trip.
When we returned to Sedona we made a quick trip up the hill to the airport where we could take in the spectacular views. A parking spot opened up at the trailhead for the Vortex. The Vortex was centered on some mystical energy portal and was an easy 10-minute hike. Since the Vortex was right on the aircraft glide path it must have been some pretty low-level energy or the airport would have been located elsewhere.
None of us experienced any strange tingling so I think the hype was all for the gullible tourists, but how about those views? We made it an early afternoon since we had a long drive home. We had made plans to meet them again when they get to Mesa so we had that to look forward to.
