Sedona

Sedona, Arizona!

Just as beautiful as I imagined, but more touristy than I expected. It is a little cool there in January, but that probably kept most of the tourists away.

The colors of the Red Rock are amazing, especially in the places where the sun enhances them.

Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa

It was just as beautiful as I imagined it would be. This picture was taken from the golf course's pro shop. I only did a quick drive-by. I still hope someday to be able to actually stay here, even if it is for a single night.

The Biltmore is one of the 1,000 places I was supposed to see before I die.

I love palm trees!
I love sun!

I am visiting my parents for the weekend, where happy hour is celebrated every afternoon. These retired people really know how to party and relax.

Crystal ball

My crystal ball (weather.com) says it may snow on Friday and Monday (Jan 28th and 31st) in Minneapolis. Those are my next two travel days.

It has been more than one month since I've been on an airplane and I am really itching to go somewhere. I booked my next trip back in September. I am going to Arizona this weekend to visit my parents. It should be warm - at least warmer than Minnesota. But I still have bad memories of trying to get to Vegas last month.

Here is hoping for no travel headaches this weekend!
