SEDONA-- Day 3

For our last day here we got up early so we could have a place to park at the last place we wanted to see- Soldiers Pass. The parking lot only holds about 15 cars and the gate opens at 8am. We were there at 7:23am and there was already a car there waiting. We pulled in behind and in about 15 minutes there were 10 cars waiting behind us.

Every direction we looked there is something new and beautiful to see.


The first thing we saw was a huge sinkhole called Devil's Kitchen!



We looked for the Seven Sacred Pools, but the water is all dried up, so its hard to know what to look for. We hiked some really cool trails and around every corned was a new rock formation!
We met a man on the trail, who lives in Corvallis, OR, but also has a house in Sedona and he told us about a trail (Ant Hill) that leads to the top of a rock that has a 360 degree view of the whole area!


Later that afternoon, Kari and her boys all came to visit us from Flagstaff.  We played in the warm hot tub and the kids even jumped in the cold pool!

Afterwards we went for treats and right there on the road next to the ice cream store there was a Trump rally going on. LaVerl got pretty fired up! It was great seeing people understanding what is going on with the election results.

We also went to Posse Park and found a cool bike trail and then watched some great scooter riders at a skate park. It was a fun last day!
