red red RED RED rocks!

• brigham (sp) young said about salt lake, 'this is the place' - he never was in sedona i take it. how incredibly blessed am i to spend time here. i feel so alive yet in a real deep way. that sounds goofy. i'm not energetic and jazzed, but calm and clear. stoned on the air and the smell and the stones and being with denise.
• although this is my 4th time here, it's the only time i've had to explore and take in what i can in 7 days. what an amazing place. around every curve is just this scene even more beautiful than the scene before it.
• very little distraction. no radio, little tv, just thoughts and feelings and soul connection with one that has known me since i was 12. 12! and how much we knew about each other then that went unspoken. and how those words still go unsaid, yet we know. but are feeling more confident in ourselves to speak.
• artichoke pizza
• vegan blt with avocado and sprouts at d'lish - holy cow - that was so good!
• trader joe's 3 buck chuck and 2 bottles left over to bring home!

• mario the indian who set us straight. 'in dios' - 'of god' - don't call him a native american!

• the projects he did in the house. powerwashing the outside and replacing the garage door with his dad! folded laundry (he did leave me his shirts because i am the shirt folding queen!).
• a week without the braves game!
• that i'm home and the braves will again fill my house with the sounds of summer.
• the bush outside the porch window that is filling my house with sweet smells.
• sushi with my husband. cucumber salad! and the perfect idea to ask them to add avocado the next time!
• the idea that we may go fishing this weekend in the boat with dave and kim and the anticipated nap underneath while the boys drive us offshore.
