    … as you drive up I-17 to Flagstaff you get a visual treat as the San Francisco Peaks come into view and dominate the horizon … it is wondrous! The tallest peak that you see as you drive up is not Humphreys Peak (the tallest of the peaks 12,637′) , but Agassiz Peak, the second highest peak and the second highest in Arizona at 12,360′ … it blocks the view of Humphreys Peak from the south. In the photo above, Agassiz is behind me and off frame on the right … Humphreys is the highest peak in the image and traveling down the ridge to the right is Aubineau Peak and Reese Peak and several miles to the right of it is O’Leary Peak … the little bump between Humphreys and Aubineau is not named. In the distance you can see the Painted Dessert and on the far left is the East Kaibab Monocline. It was a lovely day to ridge soar the peaks!

    Below is a photo of a Western Bluebird just preparing to leave a stick he was clinging to and is coming through the gap … the background is definite improvement on the banks surrounding a cattle pond …’nuff said 🙂

    Down to Lake Pleasant in not that many hours so a wrap for the day. Have a beautiful day and for sure I will … the plan is to be breathing in the morning and everything just flows from that.

    With joy,

    Ted

    Occasionally permit self-abandonment to the
    caprice of beauty; rush past the sentinel that keeps
    you in the prisoned city, and live an hour in the
    house of the world, acquainting yourself with the still
    people of the air.

    Learn the music of a summer night by the restless
    wave of the sea, or surrender to the sunlight of an
    open country where the illimitable sky at last meets
    to kiss the sweet green earth, and stay till the crimson
    shafts burn the western world;

    And something will rise in you that is not connected
    with the tiring routine of your trade—something
    strange and calm.

    Compassionate Sedona?
    By Tommy Acosta
    Sedona is known throughout the world as a spiritual destination point where the land and those who live upon it march to the beat of a different drummer. Compassion. Love. Inclusivity and enlightenment are pillars upon which this community is sustained. Yet, something happened a few days ago that made me question if this is really true. I was at dinner at a local restaurant with a fellow community resident, whom I had always thought to be one of the most compassionate people in Sedona. Quite off-handedly my friend asked me how I felt about a city plan to provide safe parking for people who work in Sedona but have to live in their vehicles because they cannot afford the rent to live here, or even in Cottonwood. I said I thought it was a great idea and my friend’s expression went from calmness to shock. “I can’t believe you are telling me that with a straight face,” he gasped, as he dropped his fork on the table. “Do you know what you are saying.” Read more→
