Finding Fall

We went exploring this weekend and found some amazing places! We found a little town called Jerome just sitting on the side of a mountain. It is an old mining town that you have to climb stairs to get to each different street. The pictures don't really show how neat it is but we sure were not expecting to find it. We didn't stop because Luke was napping and it was not on our agenda but we will be making a special trip back. We them headed on to Sedona. This is one of the most beautiful places I have seen. It is nestled in a valley surrounded by red rock mountains. It has a neat little town and lots of hiking trails. We took Luke on his first hike and he loved it! We then had to head north to Flagstaff because the road back to get to the highway through Sedona was jam packed. However, we found autumn! Beautiful colors all around. Winding roads and leaves blowing across as the cars drove by. It still truely amazes me that we are so close to such amazing places. We have only been here a few weeks but I am really enjoying being here.
