Greetings from Sedona, deep in the heart of Red Rock Country. We arrived quite late here so did not have a chance to really look at all the buttes, canyons, rivers and cliffs that make this such a dramatic destination. As the sun was setting we did get some lovely views of the red rocks and they are incredible. We went right to dinner with the board of ten. We had a big table outside but it was so dark we couldn’t read the menus or see the food that was presented. It tasted fine, but I love to see what I’m eating. We didn’t get done until almost midnight and the combination of wine and altitude knocked me out until six.
I got up and walked up the big hill, we are in a resort in the valley next to the creek. I was hoping to walk to some scenic areas but we are right in the middle of Ticky Tack Ville and I didn’t have the time for a long walk. I can however, tell you all about rock shops, UFO shops, vortex shops and zillions of souvenir joints. Supposedly we’ll see some of the main attractions on the way to dinner tonight and again tomorrow morning as we depart for the airport. We have to leave at 7:30 in order to catch my flight. I do hope tonight is an early one.
We met as a board all day and got lots done, which makes all the travel worthwhile. The board is really taking shape and we are making great strides in getting our ducks in order to make lots of money for NBCC. We were able to get everything done by 5pm so I have an hour to throw on some running clothes and take a long walk. I need to buy three boxes of Marlboro cigarettes. NO, I’ve not been inspired by the wild west to smoke, my Moscow driver made a specific request for these. I can’t even guess as to what cigarettes cost, I’m sure I’ll be shocked.
Here are some stock photos of Sedona, for those of you that haven’t been here.
Must go, wm
