Other things in Sedona

Most of Sedona is about the natural beauty... Ken and Linda enjoying the view from the top at Airport road

...but there are definitely some strange phenomenon in Sedona, and my kids thought it was only fitting to do as the "natives" do!

The BIG day

...and finally the day of celebration! Lunch at the diner in town, and THEN the DINNER at the Silver Saddle where we were treated to a "compliments of the chef" hors d'oeuver of bison meat on a prickly pear cactus salsa. Next we enjoyed appetizers that were bison meat, prickly pear cactus fries and python!!! YES! Python battered and fried and called "snake bites". We then proceeded to have our palates cleansed with a lemon icee, and had our main entrees. Nana had duckling and I can't remember what pop had, although I do recollect a cactus margarita or two. They finished up with a wonderful melted chocolate dessert made especially for them! yummmm, a meal NOT to be forgotten any time soon!

Anniversary 2nd day

Woke up Friday to beautiful clear skies and temperatures in the freezing range! We stayed at a fun place, KINGS RANSOM

This is the view Nana and Pop had from their hotel room -The Matterhorn Inn

Pop catching the incredible views!

we caught an afternoon movie...

a nice lunch at Subway together and dinner at Oaxaca rounded things out!

50th in Sedona

Nana and Pop had their 50th anniversary in Sedona Arizona on the 27th of December. The Boyer clan (minus Amy and Family) drove up Christmas day to help them celebrate! Here we are driving up through torrential rainstorms that pelted our desert access up through Palms Springs and Phoenix.
And this is where we wound up having Christmas dinner...The Red Planet Diner. Interesting for sure! But since it was the ONLY thing open on Christmas it was much appreciated for its decent menu and friendly service.
