The rainbow ends in Sedona
I’ve been on vacation in Sedona since last Saturday, but I’ve yet to catch more than a fleeting glimpse of the sun: Although the sunrises have been glorious, each day has gotten soggier as the hours have worn on. Today was different. I awoke to rain and thick fog. I decided to skip my usual […]

How to find a Sedona vortex
Sedona’s energy vortexes may be the world’s largest invisible tourist attraction: Every year, thousands of people come to experience what they describe as a subtle energy that emanates from the earth. I’m not exactly a New-Age-crystals-and-incense type. But still, I wondered if there might be something behind the hype. So this morning I set out […]

Brighter by the day
Today may be the shortest day of the year but to me it has seemed interminable. Steve is ill and the weather is crappy, so I’ve spent most of my day in the apartment. And in doing so I’ve learned three valuable lessons: (1) cable TV sucks; (2) beer tastes better chilled; and (3) refried […]

No lunar eclipse for you!
When Steve and I booked our trip to Sedona, I was thrilled to discover that we’d be here for the total lunar eclipse. Sedona is wonderful for stargazing. At 4,000 feet, the atmosphere is thinner than in Minneapolis, so the stars seem to shine brighter. And because Sedona also has strict light-pollution regulations, you can […]

Two sisters in Sedona
Today was supposed to be rainy (again) but some faint pink striations in the sky coaxed me out for a predawn walk. Even in the twilight, Sedona’s hulking red rocks dominated the horizon. As I walked along Hwy. 179, I spotted a lovely adobe church. I turned onto the small street for a closer look, […]

A soggy day in Sedona
I’m in one of the most beautiful places on earth but I can’t take my eyes off a book. It’s been rainy in Sedona, so Steve and I have spent most of the day indoors. But during a midday break in the clouds we went for a walk. We ended up at the grocery store, […]

On the road to Sedona
It’s been a big year, travel-wise: In March, I visited my parents in Florida. Then I spent two weeks in Paris. Shortly after, I attended a family reunion in Williamsburg. And this morning I set off on my fourth trip—to Sedona. Sedona was an afterthought. Steve and I hadn’t planned on going anywhere after our […]
