Sedona Sunset

Even when you’re sure the day’s sunset will be ho hum the Arizona sun finds a way to make a final exclamation. Tonight’s reminds us of the state flag. The sinking sun colors the horizon yellow with red to pink streaks radiating towards the pure blue sky directly overhead.

One of Sedona’s most popular sunset spots is a view point about a mile up Airport Road from State Route 89A. The parking lot fills as viewers arrive in anticipation of day’s end. As soon as the last yellow edge sinks below the horizon people head back to their cars. Veteran, wise watchers hang out another 15 minutes as hues intensify in a kaleidoscope of vibrant color . A spectacular end to a day in Sedona.
