we travelled up the black mountains over Cleopatra mountain and down through Jerome to Cottonwood. 

The old town has interesting shops and we wandered around the Main Street. We stopped off for coffee in a small courtyard, protected from the sun. Yes the weather is now much hotter.🌞🌞🌞 There was a very large jet black bee flying around and then it disappeared into a small hole in the woodwork,very scary.

We explored the beautiful red rocks again and visited the church of the cross again to take more photos, then we made our way back to Prescott on a quick lower level road. It’s a shame I’ll never see Sedona again but I have all those beautiful pics and memories too. There is so much more of Arizona California and Nevada to discover.
