Merry Christmas From Arizona's San Francisco! (Peaks, That Is)

Merry Christmas!

Welcome to Flagstaff, AZTucson isn't known for it's snow-covered scenery, so we took off for a few days to northern Arizona to see what we're missing.  We're staying in Prescott, and the view from our hotel room is a blanket of snow, although the roads are clear.  Yesterday, we drove the scenic route through Jerome, AZ up to Flagstaff, where we were greeted with the snow-capped San Francisco peaks.  We wish you and yours a very merry Christmas!

Mike,

That is a great picture of a fabulous landscape. It looks like the road just slams into the mountains and stops. Merry Christmas. :)

Hoping you enjoy what this holiday season has to offer and a healthy, prosperous new year...

Mike, It's a beautiful photo and I loved Prescott when I visited Arizona.   I believe I did the same scenic route because I remember being in Jerome as well.  I loved everywhere I went in Arizona!  Happy Holidays!

I'll drive back to Tucson this evening after a train ride through the Verde Valley (camera in hand) and Spring will have arrived!

Steve,

Right you are!  We drove the road to the end, and it was a dead end.

Mike, If I could speak for the citizens of Arizona-I would choose you as our ambassador of everything beautiful in AZ. So happy you decided to promote northern AZ as well as the south. Can't wait for the pictures of the Verde Valley. I've done the Verde Valley train ride in the summer-never winter. I wonder if the bald eagle will be in her nest.

Mike, Yhanks for sharing the vista. We had a skiff of snow two weeks ago and it's all gone. It can stay like this until I leave for Cabo.
