Oak Creek Canyon

I never finished the posting the pictures of the Arizona trip…

On Friday, we checked out of the time share, had a late start, but finally started driving north out of Sedona. The scenic road goes through Oak Creek Canyon and climbs to the Colorado plateau.

At the top of the canyon is a lookout where we stopped for the view.

But mostly, we stopped so that Leilani could play in the snow.

We brought our snowball maker all the way from Kaua’i (originally from the Sierra Nevada in California), and she put it to good use. Even Grandma needed to throw a snowball at Leilani to get even.

She even built a snowman. Then she made a reserve of snowballs and threw them at us when we came to look at it. I think the snowman is grinning just like she is.

We had a couple of good snowball fights, even Andy and David still threw snowballs at each other. Leilani figured out how to always hit her target: run up to them and throw it point-blank. Here she chased me into the parking lot and kept throwing at me while I took pictures over my shoulder.



Further north, we drove past the pretty San Francisco peaks, which are volcanic cones north of Flagstaff.
