Day 19 Sedona


We decided to take a hike today since it was supposed to be the last nice day before snow was to move in the area. We intended for it to be a little two hour walk. It turned out to be a three and a half hour slog through melting snow up one side of a mountain and down and around the other. It was good exercise and we got to see some beautiful scenery. The best part was watching Sylvia tippy-toe through the puddles.

Afterwards, a reward seemed appropriate, so we went to dinner at Sedona’s renowned Cowboy Club. We started off with an out of the ordinary appetizer of; grilled buffalo, grilled rattlesnake, fried cactus, and a pork and rattlesnake tamale. For the entrĂ©e we split a bone-in rib eye, the specialty of the restaurant. It was really good, but neither of us finished our half. Afterwards, we went back to the room for an early night. It was supposed to start snowing around 5AM and we were planning on leaving for the Grand Canyon in the morning.
