Cemetery Photos







Oops, posted the same one twice.

Sedona Trip!








K. This is from when we went on 'vacation' to Sedona. Its like 2 1/2 miles away. It took us probably an hour and a half to get out of Phoenix, so it felt like it only took an hour. It was great. The first picture is the view we had from just stepping out of our little Casita that we stayed at.

The second is the view from the terrace that we ate dinner at. Its this little shopping area, with gardens and such, we ate on the deck of this restaurant, and it had a long bar type seating, but this is your view. Very pretty at night.

Then we went back and slept....except that the casita we were staying at was attached to a workshop. And it was kinda scary because the door from the casita to the workshop didnt lock, and we were kinda freaked out. In the dark, late at night (everyone there goes to bed at like 9) it looked like a torture chamber...and we started getting scared. So Craig looked up crime stats on the laptop, and we found out that the crime rate is so low, there hadnt been a murder there for like 25 years or something, so we felt a little better. It was windy out, and we kept 'hearing' things, and Craig would bravely go check it out.

We were obviously just fine, but in the morning (VERY early while Craig was still sleeping) I took the dogs out to pee and enjoy the morning. And thats when I saw the CEMETERY! Yes, right next to us! Theres some pictures of it. In one of the pics, you see a headstone that says John Lay, and just behind it you see a red roof...thats where we stayed. So it was literally like next door, and as you can see, it looks a little....um....homemade....its not a real city owned cemetery. It wasnt very big, but definitely creepy!

The rest of the trip was fun, the dogs got these new harnesses (that they're wearing) from the gourmet three dog bakery. We ate at a raw food restaurant for lunch, which was much better than the italian restuarant we went to for dinner...we did some hiking, but Craig's big toe started hurting him (which we later found out was a nasty ingrown toenail) and shopped around. There were art shows in town.

We hope to go back there to Slide Rock National Park, which is about 20 minutes farther, and do some more hiking, when Craigs toe heals. He got it all cut out while I watched and held his hand, and it was seriously the most disgusting thing I have ever watched. I should have recorded it for you all to see! Haha. Anyway, it was fun, creepy, adventurous, and all in all, we want to go back, and we'll probably stay in the same place...
