Sedona and Tuzigoot and Cottonwood


We stayed in Sedona, which is a small tourist town. I'm not a fan of tourist towns, preferring out of the way places with opportunities for photography. We had plenty of those on this trip.

Tuzigoot is a national monument near Cottonwood, Arizona and is a two-three story pueblo ruin. It was fascinating to see the remains of 12th century Sinagua Indians.



 We stopped at a couple of antique stores in Cottonwood. I was wandering around the second one and happened to look outside the back door. It was FULL of JUNK! I could hardly wait to grab my camera and head out. I could have stayed there all day. I just wish the light wasn't right overhead.



I wonder what this was - part of a carnival ride? I love the old torquoise and yellow.


Old Colors


The springs in this old jalopy reminded me of the old bed spring I used to sleep on.
