we took our last looks, and left the grand canyon around 5pm, heading south towards flagstaff and Sedona. it is hard to comprehend taking anything else in, but the drive from the canyon to flagstaff up into the mountains, is another beauty unto itself. up and over 8000ft + passes, flag is nestled into the side if the mountains, and has a real charm to it. i couldn't pass up a stop at the beaver street brewery for a much needed beverage and bite to eat.
we drive down to Sedona from flag just as the sun was going down. by the time we got to town, it was dark... but you can feel the surrounding beauty.
we settled into the hotel, and we got Kate packed up for her flight back to MA. it is bittersweet for this chapter of my road trip to come to an end, but I couldn't have asked for a more special time, spent with such a special friend. I feel truly blessed to have had this time and opportunity in my life. :)
