Well, I’m back from Phoenix, just in time for the holidays. It was beautiful and warm, and despite my technology problems (broken laptop, mapless GPS, batteryless camera, and uncharged ipod), I had a good time. My only wish is that Thomas could have been there. I kept calling him and describing the views of what I saw, and how alien it all looked.

Saturday, I drove up to Sedona and did some hiking/caching. I walked around the town, but it was very touristy, with mostly teeshirt and souvenir shops. I went the Montezuma Well, which is a very large sink hole filled with water. Indians had houses around it, but it’s just a national monument now. I also hiked and drove through the Oak Creek National Forest. I looked for a couple geocaches there, but I wasn’t successful. You can check out the photos of the trip though.

Overall, it was good trip and I hope to head back out that way sometime with Thomas in tow. I’d actually like to check out the Grand Canyon, but atleast now I can no longer claim that I’ve never been to the Southwest.
