    2021-04-23 Arizona Adventure Day 5: Flagstaff Friday Funday

    Day 5. Friday. Much ado about nothing.  Much of our vacation to this point had been go-go-go. Lots of activity—tours, hiking, navigating, driving, stopping, starting, and exploring. We had nothing planned for Friday and when we got to Friday, there wasn’t anything in particular we wanted to do.  We talked about going to the Grand…

    2021-04-22 Arizona Adventure Day 4: Doing Sedona Take 2

    Day 4. Thursday. Thirsty Thursday.  Thursday is what happens when something doesn’t go according to plan. Sometimes, it’s all wrong, but sometimes it turns out alright. My big plan for the day was a hot air balloon ride over Sedona. It was one of the things that Jim and I talked about after the big…

    2021-04-21 Arizona Adventure Day 3: Deep Impact

    Day 3. Wednesday. Hump Day. Free Skate.  Wednesday I didn’t have anything planned but did think we would end up having a longer visit to the south rim of the Grand Canyon. However, we also wanted to visit the Impact Crater near Winslow Arizona at some point too. And since we were still not adjusted…

    2021-04-20 Arizona Adventure Day 2: Sedona Escape

    Day 2. Tuesday. On my “Grand” trip itinerary Tuesday was tagged as the day we would explore Sedona. In truth, all I really had planned was a late day (4pm-ish) couples massage followed by dinner at a nice restaurant. The scenery and slightly warmer temperatures are probably at the top of the list of reasons…

    2021-04-19 Arizona Adventure Day 1: Everything

    Day 1.The question for day 1 isn’t what we did on day 1. The question for day 1 is what we didn’t do on day 1.  The answer is nothing… there is nothing we didn’t do which, as double negatives go, is the same as saying everything.  We did everything.  From the top to the…

    2021-04-18 Arizona Adventure Day 0: Just Getting Started 🌵

    When writing about my travels, I tend to call travel day, “Day 0.” Then the first full day on the trip is officially “Day 1.” At the moment, it is early (5:45am) on “Day 2” so I’m playing rapid catch up to capture everything from the past two days. Let me tell you, it’s a…

    2021-04-18 Miss SugarCookie is On the Move Again… ✈️⛰☀️🌴😎

    Today is travel day. The start of another adventure and one that I get to share with my love and… have him all to myself for 6 whole days.  We were up super early in order to make our 6:20 flight and the airport was just as I remember, only with all sorts of masked…

    2021-04-17 On the Eve of the Next Big Adventure

    If I had to pick a theme for my life lately it would be “Practicing the Art of Letting Go.” So many things have slid off my radar and the biggest thing I feel like I’ve let go of is worrying about all of it. In that sense, it’s been quite positive.  It’s definitely not…
