04.14.2016: Hiking at Red Rock State Park

After wine tasting and snacks for lunch we went for our hike.  It was part of the "deal" of going to Sedona for the night....we had to hike today and tomorrow.  We could eat & drink all we want...but we have to go hike and enjoy the outdoors a little!  So, whhooohooo!!  We did...twisted a few arms, but we did!
 
We have hiked around the Red Rock State Park before, and knew it was an easy hike and easy in & out so Vince agreed to go.  Didn't raelly have our hiking gear on so wanted something easy, but with pretty views.  We hiked up to the old house at the top of the hill.  The CEO of the old TWA had bought the land forever ago and built the house for him & his wife...but got divorced so never moved there.  The wife lived there for a bit but built a house nearby and its been abandoned ever since.  Kinda sad because it is a gorgeous home & property.  The state took it over at some point after she died like 30 years ago and now its just all blocked off.
 
Anyways, we found a tree for Vince to climb that was huge but awesome for pics.  Found a couple cool little trails by the creek too.  Fun day and checked the box for getting our hike in!
