Default Arizona pics

Here are a few (make that a LOT) Arizona pics.

The first batch (posted backwards for some reason)are upon arrival in Phoenix, our first view of the Sedona Red Rocks and our Pink Jeep tour. The first pic is is what happens when you park your Escalade on a soft shoulder. No one was in it at the time. Legal Bill will be happy to see one less SUV in the world.

Lainey & Rick,

Thanks for the pics. Happy to learn that you had a good trip. Also thanks for the memories. We vacationed in Sedona four years ago.

I was impressed at how "sure footed" the pink Jeeps where.

Thanks for sharing your vacation photos, Lainey. Looks like you had some great weather. Clear air but not hot. I'll be sure to never do the Pink Jeep tour. That would have scared me.

Pretty country. I would not want to live there but it really neat to visit. The very first sports car I ever saw was a red Allard, like the one above. Also, the Kaiser Darrin's were built here in Jackson, MI.

Nice pics...that church built in the rocks at Sedona is cool, isn't it? Years ago, my bro and I drove from Sedona back down through the Oak Creak Canyon to Phoenix. And another time, we flew with my uncle up to the Grand Canyon and he kept swooping down in the plane trying to find Montezuma's Castle. I almost got airsick before he finally did! Beautiful country to visit...

Great pictures, Lainey! It's beautiful country. How was the traffic this time of year in AZ?

BTW, I noticed that your first group of pictures captures a great number of objects that are taller than they are wide. But I guess sometimes a cigar is just a cigar!
