Snoopy, Coffee Pot, Courthouse Butte! Where? I Don’t See It!

April 2017

We met our friends, Jim and Marsha in Sedona, AZ. Marsha’s a teacher so they like to take trips not too far from home for Spring Break. We stayed in another Coast to Coast Park called Page Springs RV Park in Cornville, AZ, nice place. They stayed at a Condo. Marsha had a map of the rock formations but couldn’t really see the images they were supposed to be. She’d show me the picture and I’d say, “Oh yeah, there’s Snoopy! Laying on his back on his dog house.” Or, “Yeah, see! It’s an old cowboy coffee pot!” “How do you see those?” she’d ask.

When we went to the Chapel of the Holy Cross last year we couldn’t get up to see the chapel because our truck is just too big for their tiny little parking lot. This time Larry parked at the bottom and stayed with the dogs while I rode up to the top with Jim and Marsha. Marsha has a bad knee so her handicapped parking sticker came in pretty handy. As we walked up the small hill to the chapel I noticed a formation that I was sure was The Madonna and Child. It’s quite beautiful! I pointed it out to them but being Jewish and not familiar with the statues of Mary and Jesus it took them a while to see it. I saw another smaller formation to the lower right of it. I gave it a name. See if you see it in the pictures.
I love Sedona! The Red rocks are breathtaking! Larry doesn’t like anything with crowds and it was pretty crowded!

This Tree (it is one tree) eating itself was in the RV Park!



The Condo Jim and Marsha stayed at had some awesome artwork!








The Madonna and Child Formation

 See that tiny little formation to the lower right of the Madonna and Child?
I call it Cheeto-man Pretending to be Christian! Zoom in, you'll see why.
 The Eagle!





This house can be seen from the Chapel's courtyard.
Pretty impressive!

Found a place we could go hiking with the dogs!

 Trivia Question: Where's the only place in the world where the Golden Arches are Turquoise?
Sedona, AZ of course!




 The little river by our RV Park



 Did I mention that along with dams Larry really likes fish hatcheries too!
 And I like flowers!
 We went to this really cool museum! This is an old schoolhouse room.
Did I mention Marsha was a teacher?

Larry and I decided to retire and hit the road. We bought a new 5th Wheel and new truck to pull it. We packed up the dogs and we're heading out to check off that bucket list. We wake up every morning and "Thank Our Lucky Stars" that we get to do this.
