Some of the beautiful red rock formations

My good friend Brenda arrived in Sedona last night. We had a wonderful dinner out overlooking the red rocks of Sedona and then were up early this morning and at our hike by 8:15. Six hours later, we got back to the car, dirty, wet, exhausted and inspired.
We hiked the West Fork Trail, also called Call of the Canyon, considered to be one of the most beautiful hikes in Arizona. We traversed the creek several times, passed through what looked like a bamboo forest, were surrounded by magnificent red rocks and finally waded sometimes up to my hips in very cold water till we reached a large shallow lake. All in all, it was a 7 mile hike and considering the temperatures were around 100 degrees or so, that´s an accomplishment.
As Brenda and I gasped, marveled and had our breath taken away so many times today, we were truly grateful moment by moment for the amazing life we have both created. While so many people were doing jobs they hated, in climate they don´t like, in a lifestyle that is hardly inspiring, we were in the some of the most stunning scenery in the world, with not a care in the world.
It was truly a day of great exercise, but more than anything a day of real gratitude for the blessings we enjoy. Go create your amazing life!
