    Sedona Heritage MuseumSedona AZ (March 1, 2012) – The Sedona Heritage Museum is hosting the next in its 2012 series of Living History presentations on Wednesday March 14 at 9:00 a.m. at the Sedona Heritage Museum.

    Nancy Lucia Humphry will present a Chautauqua style talk called “A Frontier Family’s Southwest Journey”. Based on her book, she tells her family’s story in the vast American Southwest. She covers her grandparent’s life in New Mexico, Colorado and Arizona in the 1800s-early 1900s, as remembered by her grandmother Maria Lucia in her hold age. Maria’s husband was a cattle rancher, businessman, politician, prominent citizen and some say a murderer. Lucia was a midwife and curandera (healer/folk practitioner). The family story has connections to Verde Valley families including the Jordans, Wingfields and Halletts.

    Nancy Lucia Humphry and her husband Paul have written multiple stories of southwestern history. Then, in 2010 partly because of her genealogy research, Nancy wrote “Those Days in December-A Frontier Family’s Southwest Journey”.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
