A Quick Trip Up North

This weekend we drove north up near ShowLow to visit Eric's aunts and uncles at their campsite.  As we arrived a storm was moving in.  The sky darkened, thunder rumbled, and temperatures dropped.  It was beautiful.  Enjoy!

Snow in Sedona 2014

This blog is few words, lots of photos.  As usual, I had a difficult time capturing the true beauty of Sedona.  It's definitely to be viewed in person!  But here are my best efforts:
