The prettiest town ever and so much see there and around there is Sedona AZ. We are big sightseers so we go to all the museums, landmarks, historical sites for vacations. I got oxygen sickness on top of Pike's Peak. Had to sit at the oxygen bar for awhile. LOL. Have you rafted the Colorado River? That's a blast for a family to do. You can go 1/2 a day, all day or a few days. I love the East for the history and the West for the wide open spaces.
