It was very difficult to leave Tucson because the resort where we stayed was so beautiful. The buildings, the grounds, the surrounding nature were all outstanding, yet our trip was not to end here.
So we packed the car.
And hit the road.
Prescott and Jerome are two towns that are a slight detour from the direct route to Sedona that we wanted to visit.
Prescott is one of the old mining towns and still has remnants of its old "Whiskey Row" and was the first capital of AZ. Actually, it was the capital twice before Phoenix finally took the title.
The county courthouse.
Alexis couldn't resist the homemade ice cream.
Our drive from Prescott to Jerome took us on a winding drive through the mountains. This could be likened to a drive down the California coastline. Despite the fact that it triggered his vertigo Alexis took many pictures like this one.
On our twisty turney drive through the mountains we found this scenic spot for a photo.
Jerome is another old mining town. This one is built on the side of the mountain. Sadly we got there so late in the day and the weather was changing we had very little time to really spend. We were able to capture the photos below.
See what I mean about the weather?
Which Alexis did immediately. 😉
I promise the next post will have been worth the wait. Sedona is GORGEOUS.
