Happy New Year to you! Did you wait up for the new year to come? In my house, we go to sleep early so we can get up and out for a New Year’s Day hike. My mom heard somewhere that whatever you do on New Year’s, you will be doing all year long. […]
Happy New Year from Sedona, AZ
I must say I kind of miss the holidays and hanging out with my family. My folks had time off, so we were able to have mid-week adventures along with our weekend activities. I got spoiled, but when mom packed up all the Christmas decorations, I knew that meant going back to normal soon. We […]
Concert in the Park & Sedona trip
May is a great month! Every Friday, Anthem Park hosts concerts on Friday evenings from 7 to 9 pm. Humans and dogs ascend with picnics to listen to tunes and enjoy the evening. For me, it means two visits to the park in one day! Yeah baby! I love sniffing replies to the messages […]

Kuma enjoys snow in Sedona

Kuma enjoys the West Fork Trail in Sedona

Kuma hikes Loy Canyon in Sedona
I love living on the north end of Phoenix because it gives us easy access to one of the most amazing places on earth: Sedona. Me and my family are always up for the short drive up north to explore red-rock country. This outing, we drove to Cottonwood and connected with the 89A from there. […]

Sedona is known for its beautiful red rock, positive energy, and great hiking. Just north of Phoenix, it is an easy place to beat the summer heat and explore some amazing country. I know because my family took me there recently. We drove straight up highway 17 and hooked up to the 89A. Look for […]
Mescal Canyon Take Two! Kuma’s great hiking adventure.
For those who follow me, you know me and my family got rained out last time we attempted to hike Mescal Canyon in Sedona. An Arizona Monsoon came in fast and furious. We had to turn around and got drenched. What a different blue sky and sunshine can make! The forecast was clear, and we […]
