Hi Kathy,
I'm glad I brought you some good memories. I wish my garden was full of the great dirt that is up in Oak Creek Canyon. But Sedona is high desert. The dirt is just pulverized red rock that has to be super amended to be able to grow anything. I've done a lot of tilling. I don't head up to Flagstaff very often but when I do it is so awesome that the second you leave Sedona you enter the beautiful canyon surrounded by towering cliffs and forest. And it always brings back memories of wonderful, thick, wooded forests again like the ones in Michigan! When I was there years ago heading to Lake Huron I remember one forest that was so thick it was dark as night in it even though the sun was shining bright at 12 noon. It was the end of May and winter was just ending! And I accidentally got up close and personal with a bear! You brought me great memories as well. Thank you.
