    … being the most intelligent of the raptors it is only natural for the Turkey Vulture to conduct classes from a lectern over the shores of Lake Pleasant … I rather rudely interrupted to take a few pictures of him before moving on. Later that morning I was drifting down a very narrow bay and a rush of motion caught my eye and there climbing up on a rock near shore was this Chuckwalla lizard who did not appreciate my presence interrupting his nap in the sun. The Chuckwalla lizard is about a foot and a half long and is not venomous. His looks are intimidating though.

    I’ve had a delightful evening listening to good music on radio station WHRB FM 95.3 … my granddaughter is a DJ there and she is on tonight … her last night before summer break but she will resume when classes resume in the fall. Check it out!

    This is it for the week and the plan is to return Monday morning … enjoy life … you only get it once and can only be certain of the moment … so live it and smile!

    The poem from Max this evening was written about 120 years ago … we repeat his words and perhaps that day he hoped for will come.

    Cheers,

    Ted

    Will future generations understand
    The turmoil of these days, the strain and stress,
    The dawn’s despair, the night’s uneasiness,
    The greed of itching palms throughout the land?
    Will they conceive the fires fanatics fanned,
    Of time the universal wastefulness,
    The strange philosophies the mobs confess
    That every throat cry out some new demand?
     
    Time was when men held saner counsel here.
    Will that time come again? Shall we behold
    From this grim madness some new love unfold?
    We pray for gentler times, when men shall cease
    His brother man to bully or to fear.
    Great God, among ourselves let us have peace!

    Short Term Rentals — Some Thoughts to Consider

    By Steve Segner
    Reports of Sedona’s death have been greatly exaggerated. There is no question that Short Term Rentals (STR) have changed the character of housing in Sedona. In past years, Sedona homes owned by out-of-towners were rented to locals at fair or below-market prices, and this market subsidy was advantageous for both renter and owner. The renter could rent a lovely home in a tourist town. The homeowner received rent to help pay for their future home with a caretaker to look after their investment. This symbiotic relationship worked for both parties, especially for Sedona’s business. When the state of Arizona passed SB-1350 in 2016, it changed this relationship. Now the homeowner could hire a professional company to manage and rent out their home as a STR and make enough to pay for the mortgage with a little (sometimes a lot) leftover, and the local governments can do nothing to stop it. Sedona lost workforce housing and long-term neighbors. Read more→
