Phoenix Trip - Part 2

As we began to approach Sedona, that's where we began to really see some serious stuff. Red rocks.





(And an outhouse in the middle of it.... I noticed in AZ there's a water cooler and a bathroom on every corner....)


There was tons of roadwork up around the Sedona area, in fact their tourism department had a kind of gam - Follow the Red Rocks Road - to try to keep you from going around to avoid the road work. The little shops and markets were just too difficult to get into so we didn't try. We were headed for these mountains, anyway.
This is downtown Sedona. A Gatlinburg-type tourist area with fudge shops and stores selling copper bracelets and great big pencils and things.

We ate, of course. This is fried cactus! It was pretty good, but that dipping sauce tasted very Chinesey - we hadn't expected a Chinese flavor with the cactus. The cactus itself tasted like fried squash kind of.
Cool! A big horse.
Awww.... he's a gelding...
