I've just returned from a week in Arizona with my family. 6 adults, 1 child, 2 vans, and a rented house outside of Cornville (about 20 minutes from Sedona).
Arizona has the best butter packaging.
It also has the Grand Canyon.
Copious amounts of wine and bread were consumed. As a Canadian in the States, I just can't get over how much cheaper things are, and booze is an excellent example. Can you see the price sticker? This bottle of wine retails for about $30 in Canada and we found it for $9.49 at a gas station.
I am looking like a hobo more often than not these days.
Near the end of the trip I finally started knitting again; because nothing beats 30+ degree heat like making wool socks. We also did a great hike - Boynton Canyon Trail - which is well worth doing if you're in the Sedona area (for us it was complete with a rattlesnake sighting and everything).
Despite being so near Sedona and hearing the word "vortex" again and again, I didn't google it until now and wish we had gone to check one out: "The vortexes in Sedona are swirling centers of subtle energy coming out from the surface of the earth. ... The energy resonates with and strengthens the Inner Being of each person that comes within about a quarter to a half mile of it." Indeed. Okay, so we missed a chance to experience vortexes. But on the plus side, the house that we were staying in had laundry, and it was very rare and exciting to come home from a trip with clean clothes.
Edited to add: turns out, on further reading, that one of the Sedona vortexes was just a little ways off the the Boynton Canyon trail that we hiked. We were likely on the perimeter of where you're supposed to be able to feel the vortex's energy. However, instead of paying attention to energy manifestations, I was thinking things like "this is the exact opposite of a hike in the rainforests of BC" and "hey! there's a rattlesnake!".
