Sedona Snapshots (April 22, 2018) by kenne
A week ago today we began a short trip that would take us to several places we have been before, the exception being Monument Valley in the Navajo Nation. Heading north on I-10, we took I-17 north to Flagstaff out of Pheinox with a little detour over to Sedona and the Oak Creek Canyon. After a brief stop in Sedona, we began the beautiful drive on the twisting Oak Creek Canyon 89A highway.
Our next stop was Flagstaff, just long enough to top off the gas tank, before heading on the Tuba City located in the Painted Desert on the Navajo Nation, where we planned to spend the night and check out the old Tuba City Trading Post.

The Chapel at Tlaquepaque is located in the Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village along the tree-lined Oak Creek. The chapel is designed after some Mexican haciendas that provided a private chapel for a visiting priests could offer mass and other services.
Five in the Afternoon
“A boy brought the white sheet
at five in the afternoon.
A frail of lime already prepared
at five in the afternoon.
The rest was death and death alone
at five in the afternoon.”

Jerome, Arizona — Images by kenne
This island in the sky,
an old copper mining town
between Prescott and Sedona,
today supported by tourism,
run by old hippies —
music festivals,
art galleries,
craft stores,
coffee houses,
restaurants —
holders
in due course
of timeless moments
in a sky-island vortex.

Cathedral Rock in Sedona, Arizona — Image by kenne
In the age of social media,
capturing the moment
allows the parallel universes
of past,
present, and
future
to coexist
in the moment.

StumbleUpon —
Capturing the moment
has become
sharing the moment.
