When I was 12 I saw the Grand Canyon for about 2 minutes, Chevy Chase “Vacation”-style. It was time for a return visit, so why not make it a road trip through our 48th state to catch other attractions? We drove from the height of Mount Lemmon outside of Tucson to the verdant Oak Creek Valley near Sedona on our way to our final stop, the Grand Canyon.
Along the way I discovered a new favorite town with excellent wines and romantic boutique hotel and ate my weight in Mexican dishes. Here are highlights of a five-day trip in Arizona.
