Like Oregon's differing west and east, Arizona has its
north and south. Now that I've seen north-central Arizona, it
seems that the Tucson area I previously enjoyed suffers in
comparison with the rugged northern sector.
My recent, most pleasing, week's vacation (Wed. April
12 through Wed. April 19) took me and sister-in-law Mrs.
Marion Weatherford of Arlington flying south to visit another
sister-in-law Mrs. H.R. "Ike" Weatherford and her daughter
Jean at Sedona.
How we loved seeing the various types and many colors
of blooming Cacti and dozens of other wildflowers,
particularly the ivory Yucca. The spectacular red rock
formations surrounding Sedona are almost overwhelming.
Lovely Oak Creek Canyon is delightful.
Our sight-seeing at Montezuma's Well and Montezuma's
Castle, nearby national monuments which show early Indian
developments, was most enlightening. How well advanced
those earlier people were. No one knows exactly why they left
their carefully irrigated fields and socially-efficient cliff
dwellings.
We were surprised at the rough dirt roads which we
traveled on for too many miles. We were told that the U.S.
Forest Service just couldn't get around to making them
better.
The almost deserted copper and silver mining town of
Jerome, perched precariously on a very steep mountainside
2,000 feet above the Verde Valley floor, excited me. Its site is
honeycombed by miles of tunnels that comprised one of the
greatest copper producing mines in the world.
Indians started mining there about 1,000 years ago.
Mining was expanded through the centuries until the great
demand for copper needed in war materials, shells, ships,
power and communications rapidly depleted the known ore
deposits in the 1940's. By 1950 the smelter fires were shut off.

The known deposits of ore were exhausted.
The big brick public school building now houses a group
of crafts shops. I was intrigued by the building's heavy
copper doors.
We had planned to drive to Prescott, Marion Morrow
Abram's hometown, but didn't have time as we still wanted
to see the Tuzigoot Ruin. That pre-historic, hilltop pueblo
near Clarkdale has 110 rooms which were homes for about
200 Indians during its peak usage between A.D. 1100 and 1400.
Marion told me that her mother was instrumental in bringing
this ruin to its present status as a national monument.
I learned that Sedona's citizens built their community's
library, that they have regular inter-agency meetings, that
they have pride in their spectacularly-located town and that
they welcome visitors.
It is easy to understand why many artists and retired
persons have settled there. Sedona has a large number of
good galleries. Husberg's Fine Art Collection is outstanding.
There are lovely shops featuring Navajo and Hopi crafts,
jewelry, baskets and rugs. In one boutique we found a display
of Pendleton blankets.
All I purchased beside postcards and a few small books
were small pieces of pottery a teapot and a little,
three-piece oil lamp. Luckily nothing was broken on the way
home.
If you are wondering where to go vacationing, try the
Flagstaff -Sedona area. I don't think it will be either too hot or
too cold there from now through September.
We found that numerous Arizonians are health food
devotees. I experienced something newa Bunny Shake.
(No, we were not in a Playboy Club.) We were in a healthfood
restaurant in Phoenix. The shake was made of carrot juice
blended with ice cream and honey.
Most of our flight south was above a mass of cotton-white
clouds, but coming home visibility was good until about
Medford. We observed much desert, the famed Salton Sea,
the California coastline with nearby oil tankers, Catalina and
the islands off Santa Barbara, a well-filled Shasta reservoir
and Mt. Shasta from the top down.
When we landed at Portland it was raining hard which
almost made me wish I could go right back to sunny Sedona.
However, I was happy to reach home and to be able to
attend the Soroptimist-senior girl's luncheon and the HHS
stage band's dinner-concert last Thursday. Both were extra
nice. A highspot of the concert, for me, was pianist Ella Mae
Green's performance.
This talented Lexington freshman played and sang an
original composition. The next day I had a brief chat with
popular music instructor Jim Ackley. He said that Ella Mae
started school music in the fifth grade when he first came to
Heppner. She began on drums but changed to piano in the
seventh grade. He told me that the majority of the band
members are freshmen. I certainly plan to take in their
concerts from now on.
next week
Mrs. W.W. Weatherford, Heppner, and Karla Weather
ford, Bremerton, Wash., announce plans for Karla's June
marriage to Richard Weaver of Silverdale, Wash.
The ceremony will take place in the United Methodist
Church in Silverdale at 2 p.m., Saturday, June 10, and a
garden reception will follow.
Karla, a graduate of the University of Puget Sound, is
now instructor of daily living skills at Bremerton's Peninsula
Lodge. Rick, a graduate of Willamette University, is
rehabilitation director of the vocational rehabilitation
program at the same institution. His parents are Richard
Weaver, Bremerton, and Alice Weaver, Silverdale.
Karla will be given in marriage by her uncle, Marion
Weatherford, Arlington.
Friends from Morrow County are cordially invited to
