Wow, the drive from Sedona to the North Rim is fairly substantial!

Anyhow, you picked the absolutely correct time to go to the canyon--not a lot of traffic, and not a lot of mule shit all over the trail.

What you do in AZ exactly? Bell is wonderful--it's been a long, long time since I've been there. I'm jealous :)

I love the red rocks and that luscious long blond hair! :)

Seriously though, I'm so jealous! One day this weekend I spent either puking or in bed and the next day I spent time with my husband running while it was 28 degrees with 35 mph sustained winds and 55 mph gusts and snowing! Actually, we didn't really run together because he was wearing shorts and couldn't stay slow enough for me to keep up so I just followed his footprints in the snow. Heh.

Any news on the job front? Did you get any running in in AZ?

Yeah, it was absolutely amazing. When I have a little more time I will elaborate on the trip. But Joseph, you are right - it was the perfect time to go. We were at the South Rim though - not all the way up to the North Rim.

Salty, sorry to hear you were sick. Something nasty is going around. Last night my 6 year old was throwing up all over the place too. Yuck.

The job search is going very well. It is a painfully slow process, but I have my 3rd and 4th interviews this week with the firm I am hoping to get into (the 3rd is to meet with the recruiter and get info on who exactly I am meeting during the 4th - the 4th is meeting with key partners and associates). I also have another fairly good propect if this does not work out. Thanks for asking!

No running for me in Sedona. It really was not a great place for it as the roads were either heavily travelled (at high speeds) or tiny windy roads with no shoulders. So we did lots of hiking/rock climbing instead. I am still sore!!

More later... It was awesome!
