"Where should we go for Memorial Day?" That's a question I've mulled several times recently. Hawk and I finally made a call on it Thursday night, and I booked plans Friday. We're going to Sedona, Arizona!
Sedona is a resort town in the red rocks region of Arizona. It's about 2 hours north of Phoenix by car and 2 hours south of the Grand Canyon. We'll fly to Phoenix after work on Friday 5/27, crash in an inexpensive hotel near the airport since we're arriving after 11pm, then drive to Sedona Saturday morning. In Sedona we've picked a nice hotel, the Hilton Sedona Resort. We'll be there through Tuesday; we've taken that day off from work to make a 4-day weekend. We'll fly home Tuesday night 5/31.
As I booked these plans I considered whether it's worth going to Sedona ``again''. I felt like we were there... maybe 5 years ago? But then I checked my blog and realized it's been 9 years. Our last visit was in 2013. And that visit got stunted because I got sick with a cold during the trip. Our last real trip to Sedona, one where I was able to do the things I actually wanted to do, was in 2006. So yeah, it's time to go back!
