Thanks, Afsaneh!
Beautiful as it is here in Prescott, there are two more beautiful places, IMO:
--Sedona, 40 miles north of us, has world-famous Red Rocks that cannot be described for awesome beauty. Sedona also has many hiking and biking trails, and "vortexes"--places where energy supposedly collects and people hang out to get "charged up." Alas, everyone wants to live in Sedona, so housing prices are off the charts and they're building McMansions on every square inch of land.
--The Grand Canyon is about 120 miles north of us. The Grand Canyon is without doubt the most gorgeous, breath-taking place in America. It's also the most-visited attraction in the United States: more domestic and international tourists visit the Canyon than any other place in America. And, fortunately, no one can build in the Grand Canyon except Mother Nature.
