re: Sedona Trip BUMP trip update (no pics) and LONG

Day Four - Relaxed in the early morning. and then we went to Jerome for lunch. Jerome Az was fun, just a fun ride up there, some great touristy shopping and a very good lunch at the Jerome Grande Hotel. Family loved this place.

Went back to oak creek to chill and had a nice dinner at home that night. Filet Mignon that had been marinating since Monday)

Day Five - Had a picnic at the Banjo Bill area on Oak Creek. The Banjo Bill picnic area on the Oak Creek Canyon road was our spot. Not to crowded and very beautiful and serene. That night, our last in Sedona, we had a marvelous dinner at Cucina Rustica. (Lisa Dahl - same chef as Mariposa) . Chef was at this restaurant that night and personally made my Caesar salad! The restaurant is now closed due to staffing shortages. That is sad but help wanted signs where everywhere in Arizona.
