Now I was unable to make it to the Sedona Gathering but being so close I had to take the trip over there.  Besides remember my comment “Lesson – Always listen to the Duke!”  Well the Duke (San Jose Duke) told me how close I was to it at the H-D Dealership and that was it.

Going into Sedona

Alright that’s it!  I gave this town another opportunity to open its arms of friendship!  What do I get?  Hole in Donut!  Nothing!  Nice views though.

Time to head on down the road and travel through Tucson…Last time I was here was on the same trip as the Grand Canyon as a young lad.  Visited Old Tucson but that would not be in the plans this journey.
