Judy and Sheila's Excellent Adventure Day 5

Well...Friday was a REALLY long day...jam packed with adventures! Ever been on a Pink Jeep Tour?  Well...after the MONSOON washed us out on Thursday night...we rebooked and went Friday morning. Had a wonderful breakfast in uptown Sedona and then met our tour guide and headed out! This was a 2 hour Canyon Tour and the views were spectacular as promised! Learned a lot about the land, the plants, the history...Sedona is named for Sedona Schnebly who was much beloved, the wife of Carl (T.C.) and they came out west at the urging of Carl's brother who was already farming in the area close to Flagstaff. Carl was hardworking, very successful, and they built a two story house. Soon Carl sought to open a Post Office and applied for a name. He chose Sedona's name and everyone was happy as she was known for her wonderful hospitality!

The weather was perfect but there were dark clouds looming...we found out that Sedona usually averages only 14 inches of rain annually, but had received half that since we were there!!! Who knew? Our guide also told us of the naming of the spectacular Red Rock Formations, and some other important sites that we should not miss. One of them being...The Chapel of the Holy Cross. So...we headed out to visit...beautiful, awe inspiring and we lit candles and prayed for lots of friends and family!

Then...off to Santa Fe. Okay...we only made it to Oak Creek Vista before a stop was needed. It was a beautiful spot, scenic outlook, and boasted an Indian Marketplace. There were many deals to be had...and yes, we did take advantage of them! But at the end, we got RAINED on again....so we ran to the car and headed out again.

On the road again...we then stopped for lunch and decided our course of action...but chose to stop again at the Meteor Crater site close to Winslow, Arizona. Thinking this a 30 minute detour....nooo...this is a ticketed site with a movie, guide, etc. and we wound up being there 1.5 hours. Now...it is 4:30....and we REALLY vow to keep going...

Long story short...we arrived at our B&B in Santa Fe at MIDNIGHT!!! After some GOOD red wine, we got some much needed rest and now have had a wonderful breakfast. Today: Plaza (5 blocks) and The Georgia O'Keefe Museum, good food, and great wine!!! Weather beautiful now...but...as you might guess...rain looming, especially for tonight.

Lesson for today: Need some rain in your area? Call Judy and Sheila...we bring it with us! Also...need some adventures in your dull, boring life? Give us a call...we can give you some ideas to liven up even the most boring drives on the planet!

All for now...I raise my Organic Green Ginger Tea (I am in Santa Fe) to you....

You Look MAAHHVELOUS!

As I begin my journey to my hairstylist for an overhaul (color, cut, style, etc), I can not help but smile with anticipation. This is a treat that everyone should experience as having a professional make you look your best is priceless! When you leave the salon, you are smiling, your confidence level is soaring, you feel you can take on the world...and truth be told, you can! Now...if we could just translate this into the business world....hmmm. Well...the good news is you can! By practicing 3 daily habits, you can transform yourself everyday at home. How? 1. Read the likes of John Maxwell (my personal favorite) as he is both uplifting and real about leadership:how to develop into one, grow, and mentor and foster others. 2. Daily devotion time: Pray, give thanks, and turn over your cares and concerns to God. After all, he formed you for a purpose. It is said that we all have everything inside us for our mission in life. We just need development. As a person undergoing that develop...

You Say You Want a Revolution?

"Revolution" is one of my ALL TIME favorite Beatle tunes. Actually, for several reasons...love the music, love the words, and love the idea!  The word revolutionary denotes something new, groundbreaking, and normally carries a positive tone...something to look forward to...better than before...full of hope for the future! Just think if you were one of the first to learn about GOOGLE, MICROSOFT, APPLE, etc....and were in on the ground floor...what an opportunity...and yes, certainly, REVOLUTIONARY! Well...I would like to introduce you to a revolutionary new concept just beginning TODAY, August 15, 2012....in all of the United States! It is called Clean Nation. Clean Nation offers every consumer the chance to change the environment in a revolutionary way by erasing their carbon footprint one megawatt at a time (a megawatt is 1000 kilowatts) and support the production of renewable energy sources of wind, solar, and hydro...which creates jobs right here in the United States!

Making A Difference

Doesn't everyone want to feel like they are making a difference in this world? I know I do! I have met some powerful people this past week who are DEFINITELY making a difference in the world by mentoring, helping the disabled, helping non-profits raise much needed funds, helping restore local treasures, and helping heal broken relationships. What are YOU doing to  make a difference? Need a place to plug in? There is a Senior Job and Volunteer Fair coming up on Tuesday, September 12 in Frisco from 10-3. Maybe you attend and find a place that speaks to you so that you can start volunteering. Maybe your company is looking for some new talent and could look to hire active adult seniors with tons of life experience. This wonderful event is being held at the Frisco Senior Center and is sponsored by The Senior Services Alliance of Frisco, a group of the Frisco Chamber of Commerce. Check this out at www.frisocchamberofcommerce.com Our firm is also sponsoring the Silent Auction Tent a...
