Arizona | Laura

If you are reading this and you know me, have even met me for five minutes you'll note that I am wearing flip flops. I simply stay indoors if it is too cold to wear flip flops. The thing is, I don't like socks. Never have. I put on my tennis shoes and socks on for the long day ahead, but I wasn't thrilled with the idea of wearing socks all day. First we stopped to see Montezuma's Castle then on to Sedona and up to the Grand Canyon.  By the end of the day I was indeed glad that I had them on because Arizona blew my socks right off!

If I have time along the way I hope to post a blog about each of the places, but until then, here are a few favorite selections from Arizona...

Urban Gypsies | Laura


Upon arriving in Sedona, food was first on the list. We had a picnic under the shadow of the Red Rocks. A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.  Next up?  Shopping! I have a few people on my 'cheezy teeshirts from the trip' list and I wanted to check off that list before I spent all my money on Turquoise. We asked the woman at the counter of a cool shop in the tourist district what a local would do, she sent us to Urban Gypsies. It's a cool vintage fashion and gift shop in West Sedona with tons of cool art and handmade jewelry.  I want one in Charelston so bad I may start a facebook page to lobby to have them open one. You'll see why:
