Marcel & Ken went off to check out storage facilities in the area. Apparently Flagstaff gets a lot of snow, so we would prefer to move further south into the valley.
Went for a drive to Sedona, which we had heard was an awesome place. Drove Hwy 89A, which is a beautiful, winding drive with many 6% down grades. Flagstaff is at 7000ft. and Sedona is 4500 ft. It was an interesting drive!
Sedona is very commercialized, full of jewellery & T-shirt shops! We explored the town for 2 hours and it was HOT!
It is surrounded by fascinating rock formations.
They really like their roundabouts here! There are several as you drive through town.
The main street is very pretty with flowers & greenery (which must be kept watered as there is very little precipitation).
Next we drove up to the Sedona Airport, which is America's most scenic airport and sits on a mesa at 4827 ft. From the outlook, the overview of Sedona was awesome!
Then it was on to Red Rock country. Stopping at a viewpoint, we had a superb view of some interesting rock formations, the second pic is a formation called "the Courthouse". I didn't catch the name of the first pic.
