Phoenix Trip – February 2009
I decided to go down to Phoenix again, but this time I brought a couple of friends down with me. Every time I get off a plane I am confused about where I am. Seriously, air travel is so quick! The weather was warm for our standards… but that isn’t hard to beat when it is -20 out.
The trip was packed with sights to be seen and fun to be had. We saw the Grand Canyon and Sedona in one day and were back in Phoenix by 6:00 PM so Missy could go to work. Just to give you an idea, the Grand Canyon is about a four hour drive from Phoenix. When you look at the photos below, you will notice that there was a lot of snow at the Grand Canyon. I actually fell asleep on the drive up to the Grand Canyon, and when I woke up there was more snow than we had in Moorhead.
We took a hike up Camelback Mountain, drove the Apache Trail, saw the Rooseveldt Dam, rode public transportation, saw the Desert Botanical Gardens, saw the Suns arena, and Chase Field, and got to hang out with Missy, Sarah, and Brent. Good times.
