Verde Valley, Arizona


Wow, what a beautiful place. High desert and the sky is blue and the ground is very dry and sandy. We went touring some places we missed the last time we were in Sedona. The most interesting to me was Montezuma's Well. That is where the Indian women went to give birth and rest for 2 weeks before returning to the fields to work.

The park we are in is on the Verde River and there aren't very many people here. We may decide to "veg" out for 10 days before heading to the balloon fest.

Today it actually rained, not enough to start any flash flooding, but enough to wash the dust off everything. Night temperatures in low 60's days into 90+. But it is dry air (they all say that)
