See Sedona

by Wendy Dembeck

Overview

A different kind of travel book, See Sedona couples a guidebook with a photobook--51 photos of the places you want to see. Use this book as a day-by-day guide to fill a week or use its suggestions to explore even more of this unique area. Wendy's personal approach includes informational links and ideas that conventional guidebooks often miss.

Included are directions to ease navigation and places to pick up additional information and sight-seeing tips. There are histories, descriptions, and details about the sites you will visit.

Wendy answers your questions too. How did Sedona get its name? Where can you find fish--or wine--in the desert? Why did the ancient peoples abandon their homes in Tuzigoot and Palatki? Why was the "Stupid Motorist Law" necessary? Where's the best shopping in Sedona? What are some great restaurants? Where's the ideal spot to enjoy a Sedona Sunset? What's a vortex? Why should you be prepared to have many WHOA!! moments?

As a professional photographer, Wendy packs See Sedona with photographs to pique your interest. See Sedona doubles as a memory book when you return home. Catch some of the beautiful and colorful desert flowers; get a close-up of a tarantula in his rock-wall safehouse; see the bluest sky; view the impending storm; feel awe at the oldest ruins. And marvel at the reddest rocks in Red Rock Country.

Best of all, make the most of your vacation with See Sedona to guide you.

About the Author

To Wendy Dembeck, retiring after a successful 33 year teaching career did not mean a front porch rocker. It meant travel with her husband, Rob. During their first free autumn and an extended trip to California, their niece and nephew asked them to recommend some California must-see sights.

What followed, after ten months of learning how to design a website, was Third Age Traveler, an ezine for those with the freedom to travel from a real traveler's point of view.

Third Age Traveler included an online travel agency and Wendy's recommendations for intriguing destinations, tips to make travel easier, books that travel well, restaurants worth visiting, and photographs to bring smiles.

As blogging became the way to connect, Third Age Traveler the website eased itself into Third Age Traveler the blog (minus the travel agency) at www.thirdagetraveler.blogspot.com with subscribers all over the world. That is where Third Age Traveler exists today. Using Blogger's own counter, one can see that Third Age Traveler is often visited by people looking for good information.

Meanwhile family, friends, and readers prodded Wendy to finally take the big step and write a book about her travels.

Reviewing her notes and photos and learning about independent publishing, she settled on what will be a series featuring a different kind of travel book—a guidebook for those going and a memory book for those who have been. See Sedona is the first of the series with plans to bring out See Oahu and See Hawaii, the Big Island in early 2013, and then…. It all depends where the travel whim takes them.
