Funny Signs

This winter has been long and yucky so for spring break we decided to skip town and find some sunshine. We went to Sedona, AZ where we stayed for 1 full week at a 5 star resort. It was warm, beautiful, and a great break from the haze and snow of home.



Our first day we rode an open aired train through a canyon. Pretty cool & relaxing.


Later that night we went to Blazin M Ranch where we played games, ate a great bbq dinner, and had some fun entertainment. Turns out Grandma & Grandpa Weir have some mad roping skills!

One of our favorite activities was feeding the giraffes at "Out of Africa Wildlife Park".



We visited the south rim of the Grand Canyon, something everyone should see.


We visited Slide Rock State Park which was really cool. In the summer it is a natural swimming park, it even has some natural slides. It was really fun to explore.

While on our trip we saw some funny signs, here's a couple.

It's hard to see, but the speed limit is 12 1/2 mph.

Our resort had 3 family swimming pools that were quite nice but I think they overestimated the pool capacity a bit.

Okay everyone in and stand shoulder to shoulder, let's fill this pool with "bathers".


Here is the outside of our condo. We had to point out to Grandma that ours was the green one so she wouldn't get lost.


This was one of my favorite features of our room, I sure wish I had one at home!

When we got up Saturday morning to pack up and head for home we had...

Snow! Good thing we were leaving I don't think I could handle snow in Arizona! Somehow it just seems wrong!

We were just swimming in this pool all week!
This is the max capacity of 115. Still funny to me.

We had a great trip but when we got home there was one more surprise waiting for us...



I guess it rained and snowed the whole time we were gone and water seeped into our basement. Oh well we were going to redo it anyway, this was just a great motivator.
