I agree! We got married in Tucson and visited many places there. Very beautiful… we love the weather

Beautiful shots! Very awesome!

I took the family there, too, but it was 20 years ago. Amazing terrain and striking views. I went for the mountain biking. Broken Arrow Trail, I think it was. Man, did that beat me down hard.

Nice pics.

But Exhausting.

Can someone wheel you around or can you rent a golf cart or something so you can drink around the red rocks?

Thank you for posting! Oak Creek Canyon is a great drive if you're headed north.

Sedona is poignant place for me. In 2016, October, I managed to shoehorn a 30' RV into Tlaquepaque Village parking lot for the two women under my charge. BFF, who passed in 2019, and her mom. BFF loved shopping; Tlaquepaque was the perfect last shopping spree of the trip for her.

Note: One of the guards said they would not have allowed it during the day, but it was a little after 5pm ... and he was off the clock.

We were stunned when we went to Sedona for the first time, probably 20 years ago. Ditto for the Grand Canyon. Highly recommend AZ!

Oh no. Not that again. Hanging with Ewoks once is enough.

Thank you! We try not to go to the same place twice, as the world is so big. I book things pretty far out in advance, so prices are usually solid.
