October 27th

Yesterday we didn't do much of anything, being Sunday and all I just did nothing but watch the NSCAR Race and heard that Seattle Seahawk's won their game.  Other than doing some work on the computer it was just a plan lazy day and we all need them once in a while.
I noticed that the sun was going down and this sunset was kind of nice so took a couple of pictures.
OK, that's to much work for today, now back to the easy chair and doing nothing again!!!!
This morning was a different story, we were up early (by 9:00 AM) and on the road by 9:45 AM to pick up Dan & Nancy for a day of playing tourist.  We had plan's to head to the Chapel of The Holy Cross up near Sedona, AZ.
  This Chapel came in to being because of Marguerite Brunswig Staude. I will not go into the whole story about her thoughts about how this Chapel was to look.  Please go to this web site to read all about this wonderful Chapel, http://www.gatewaytosedona.com/popular-articles/item/31-sedona-arizona-landmark-the-chapel-of-the-holy-cross. Here are a few of the pictures that we took while here.





It was a great visit and glad we made it a point to visit this historic site.
Dan, Nancy & Cyndy were great tourist on this trip, we enjoyed our day with them and look forward to seeing them again.
What amazes me is how green these trees are and how little rain they get here, let alone the dirt that their roots grow into.
 Even I got a picture with my lovely bride.
After a busy walking around this Chapel we head to the town of Sedona for lunch.  We wanted to take Dan and Nancy to a Sandwich shop that we have been to when visiting this area in the passed.  After making a couple of wrong turns we found the shop.  It is called the Bakery & Cafe, here a couple of the great sandwiches we had.


They make there own bread here at this shop, we asked to buy a loaf, but he said they have just the right amount for the sandwiches they make every day.  I got a kick out of Nancy, when she said I can make two sandwiches out of the meat they put on this one sandwich.
It was great to spend time with Nancy & Dan once more while we are here in Verde Valley.  They are going to be here for another month working as volunteers for a church project.  Then they are moving down towards Phoenix area for a couple of months.  We hope to see them there when we get back to Apache Junction.
Tomorrow some friend are stopping by for a night so looking forward to see them.  Other then that we are going to play some more.
