Warm and Wonderful Cocoon

I lived in Sedona for 2 years, and loved a lot about it. It may be the most beautiful place I've ever lived, and the pace is easy, to say the least. Friendly people, everything(PO, supermarket, health food market) was 10 minutes away, but I felt a little isolated since the rest of the world is effectively 2 hours away.. Phoenix, the nearest "real" city and the airport are 2 hours away(and not a pleasant place at all), and of the alternatives- Flagstaff or Cottonwood-one's a drive straight up the mountain for 45 minutes, and the other doesn't really have more to offer than Sedona does. I am going back in January 2007 for a week or two, and I am really looking forward to it. I think the ideal way to enjoy Sedona is as a retreat from the hectic world, and the perfect situation would be, for those of us who love Sedona and still want to be "more of this world", to spend a couple of weeks now and again. It is astonishingly beautiful, with lots of galleries to explore, red rocks to hike in, great restaurants, and kind relaxed people. Highly highly recommend this wonderful place to visitors, and for those considering moving there, if you are ready to cocoon forever or for awhile, you couldn't do better than Sedona.
