We're enjoying Flagstaff and are glad we've done our sightseeing with Steve and Lorelyn. Today is a stay-in day (they just left for Bluff, Utah for Steve's plein air painting class) - the winds are blowing mightily and we're doing laundry and catch-up reading (I'm only on book two of five I brought along).
Sunday Steve and Lorelyn arrived for supper and a show (the new Sherlock Holmes on DVD). Too much action.
Monday we checked out the Riordan Mansion (http://azstateparks.com/parks/rima/index.html) and downtown Flagstaff (lunch at Macy's) and evening entertainment of Last Chance Harvey. Nice film.
Tuesday was Walnut Canyon (http://www.nps.gov/waca/) and La Posada (http://www.laposada.org/) in Winslow for a wonderful gourmet lunch. The place was originally designed by Mary Colter as a hotel for guests traveling by train. It had fallen into disuse by the late 50's and transformed into offices - destroying a lot of the art and charm of the place. It is still being renovated but seems a wonderful place to stay.
It was two-fer Tuesday for videos here so our evening entertainment was A Serious Man (so-so) and Up in the Air (better).
