    Verde Valley AZ (December 5, 2012) – The Verde Valley Wine Trail and Verde Valley communities have been recognized in Lonely Planet’s annual Top 10 US Travel Destinations List for 2013. Lonely Planet is the world’s leading travel publisher and holds the #1 spot in guidebook sales in the world. Robert Reid, the US travel editor, announced the selection made by their editorial team saying, “The 714 acre region is beautiful, with green canyons, rimmed by red rocks, and towns like Cottonwood, Jerome, and Sedona that have long drawn visitors for good food, art and mining lore. But the Verde Valley is all about the wine.” The Top 10 US Destinations are 10 places in the US that Lonely Planet thinks travelers should add to their wish lists for the coming year.

    The Verde Valley has long been known for the red rock beauty between Sedona and Cottonwood, but travelers are now discovering the charm of Cottonwood and Jerome. Cottonwood’s Old Town main street is lined with one-of-a-kind shops, tasting rooms, locally owned dining establishments, and unique lodging. Jerome is an authentic old mining town that clings to the mountainside overlooking the Verde Valley. Known as the “wickedest town in the west,” visitors love Jerome’s haunted history, shops, tasting rooms, and restaurants with local character.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
