She moved to Texas a year ago, and I'm so sad I won't be visiting some of my favorite haunts in AZ every year now. Sedona is such a beautiful place, but needless to say, I've never explored it by horseback:) What a fantastic trip you must be having--enjoy!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27385862.post-83616714575420916482013-03-28T05:23:42.467-06:002013-03-28T05:23:42.467-06:00I grow Prickly Pear here in Wisconsin, but only th...I grow Prickly Pear here in Wisconsin, but only the yellow.
