Tucson to Flagstaff (now with more Florence)

Lori and I compared roadside sightings of crested saguaro, and determined that we would see one on this trip. And so we did, on Highway 60, in front of the Arizonian RV Resort. A fine specimen she is, too.

But, I'm getting ahead of Florence, who gets tired of the view when I do that. We enjoyed some Sonoran scenery along the Pinal Parkway (SR 79), until we got to Florence, AZ.

Florence has what looks like a charming old downtown. We had lunch at The Fudge Company, then moseyed along. There's not much else to say about the beauty spots of Florence; it's a prison town.

There is plenty to say, on the other hand, about beauty spots of Sedona. Please enjoy the following 3,000 words:
