Mile 2,139

Dated: Saturday, May 1st
Location: Sedona, Arizona

We set out from our motel refuge early (but not too early) and set out across the desert. We stopped at the painted desert to ooo and ahh at its beauty (it really was beautiful). We also saw a lot of pictographs (is that what they're called) on the rocks left by people thousands of years ago. It was really cool.

Sedona is a lot more built up than either of us remembered. There are a lot of artsy stores and it seemed like the tourists were much more interested in shopping than in the beautiful scenery around them.

We camped down by the river in Oak Valley and did a short hike after pitching our tent. It was very pretty but it got dark fast. Feeling like total campers, we curled up in our tent with my laptop and watched "Planet Earth."
