On this day of celebrating the earth, I’d also like to give thanks for our guests Scott and Tina and 6 year old Kate and little 3 year old Izzie who always show us how to appreciate all of the planet’s bounty — especially the food!

Scott is a seasoned professional chef (ho ho) and has treated us to amazing meals all week. And yesterday Tina and I took Kate for her first sushi. Although the weather’s been a bit cool for Sedona, we’ve managed to pack in a lot of touring as well. We do love having guests!
