    Sedona News – The Sedona Heritage Museum is excited to announce the return of its popular Oak Creek Canyon guided history tours.  This year the tours are offered April 24-26.

    Tour attendees will enjoy a ride in a coach up and down Oak Creek Canyon, led by a Sedona Heritage Museum guide.  Scheduled stops will occur at historical sites scattered throughout the Canyon.  Roughly 20 historic sites are included on the Tour.  Some of the sites will be pointed out from the coach while others will invite attendees to exit the coach and explore the site.

    Stops include Slide Rock State Park, site of the Pendley family orchards; the Purtymun family’s Cave Springs kitchen; the Thompson springhouse; and the Forest Houses Resort, where the notorious Stopwatch Gang was apprehended after a run of thefts that made them the most successful bank robbers in history.  Attendees will receive a program with historical photos from the Museum’s collection.

    Tours leave each day from the Sedona Heritage Museum’s lower parking lot at 2 pm.  The coach will return to the Museum’s lower parking lot at approximately 5 pm (pending traffic).

    Attendees must have a ticket to participate in the tours.  Tickets are available by calling the Sedona Heritage Museum or stopping by the Museum Store.  Tickets are $85 for the general public, while Sedona Historical Society members receive discounted tickets for $75.  Tickets are limited, so get your tickets today!

    We Have Been Thoroughly Trained!
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    Throughout the years, we have been trained. Part of the training is to see others as trained, but not ourselves. Even though we are the others that others are trained to see as trained, we tend to miss that little nuance. The training says we must know what’s right and speak out when we see something that runs contrary to our understanding of rightness. We don’t stop to realize that what we see as right isn’t exactly right or it would be the right version that everyone in their right mind knew as right. There are billions of versions of right but ours is the only real right one. Seems fishy, doesn’t it? We spend our days, our lives, catching others — the wrong ones — doing and saying things in support of their versions of right and our training has us jumping on the critical bandwagon lest we be painted in support of the wrong right. What in this crazy world moves us with such amazing force to crave rightness, to need to be seen as right? Read more→
