    logo_sedonamuseum2Sedona AZ (January 21, 2019) – The Sedona Heritage Museum presents Michael Peach in a performance of his new original show “What’s In A Name?!” on Saturday, February 2 at 1:30 p.m. Peach’s show features his unique blend of original cowboy poetry with a tongue-in-cheek look at Arizona and local history, also incorporating jokes, stories, and first person narrative.

    This new show both exposes and pokes fun at quirky Arizona places and how they got their names, among other amusing history-based stories and themes.

    photo_michaelpeach10“Did the Aztecs settle in the Verde Valley? Is Coconino a Spanish term meaning “Chocolate Child”? Is losing a finger enough to get a place named after you? Are Courthouse Rock and Cathedral Butte suffering from an identity crisis? Did the Yavapais make fun of the Lone Ranger? Was a local town misnamed because of bad penmanship?”, asks Peach. Expect answers to these and other Arizona naming questions as Michael “Coyote” Peach tells his stories. Oh, and by the way, rumor has it that Mike himself uses an alias!

    An award-winning actor, playwright and historian, Peach is especially good at bringing to life history and his subjects. But, he isn’t afraid to also spin some tall tales, too. Informative and entertaining, Mike’s shows have long been a favorite of university, state and national parks, and historically-oriented audiences.

    No Legal Traction on OHVs
    By Tommy Acosta
    In the upcoming fight between the city and companies that rent Off Highway Vehicles, the city is going to lose. Simply put, the city has no jurisdiction over state-owned highways. Period. It can manage its own streets and pass ordinances to promote public safety on them, but it can do nada to ban OHVs on S.R.179 or S.R. 89A. Who remembers the fight over dark skies and the light poles on S.R.89A? ADOT had its way no matter how hard the opponents fought. It’s the same here. Can one really believe that Polaris, with outlets across the country, would allow a precedent to be set where municipalities can ban OHVs on state-owned highways that run through their cities? The answer is a resounding “hell no.” Read more→
