    … got a late start today, no particular reason, just spent time enjoying my espresso and texting the girls. I got up to the airport around 11A and into the air shortly after that. The clouds had really developed and cloud base was about 7800′. Because I had a midafternoon appointment in Cottonwood I elected to stay in the neighborhood and shoot the city, rocks and home.

    I live in the Village of Oak Creek an unincorporated are in Yavapai, County, but we use Sedona as our mailing address. So, the urban area closest to you is the Village and on the right side going up Jacks Canyon is Pine Valley … we live on the golf course closest to the rocks on the left side … the whole area is also known as the Big Park area. The road coming up from bottom right is SR 179 and the first little cluster of buildings near bottom right is the USFS Visitor center … beyond the Village SR 179 skirts Bell Rock on the right, goes through a wilderness area and then into the Chapel area and beyond that you can see Uptown on the right and part of West Sedona on the left just under the cloud line.

    Tomorrow morning I’m going to get an earlier start and shoot some neat areas of the Painted Desert I have scouted before and hoping the clouds are good again. Photographers group in the evening and sounds like we’re going to have some neat new work to look at. Life is fun and family and friends make it more so.

     
    Time to wrap it … need a few hours of sleep and a lot of espresso in the morning … roast your own … www.burmancoffee.com ; think I have been doing it for about seven years now and could never go back to commercial coffee beans. You will get premium coffee for about half what you currently pay and quality that you cannot imagine!
     
    Have a beautiful day … smile … remember a day when you were laying on your back in the grass looking up at clouds … imagine being up there and exploring all the cloud canyons :+)

    I am the dawn, the whisper of winds, the perfume of morning.
    The passing night fondled me, hovering close to me, softly, silently.
    The breaking day builds the spirit temple of my joy, I abandon myself!
    I see all as one, and nothing repels me, as this new day climbs noiselessly out of the valley of the night.
    Peace lies over the world and over the world of my soul.
