Verde Valley Railroad

Taking a canyon ride on the Verde Valley Railroad was on our bucket list for some time.  We were told to do this in the fall so we could see the colors, and even though it wasn't as colorful as the east U.S., it was still pretty awesome.  We enjoyed a first class ride with appetizers and lunch with a swig of champaign.  It was also warm enough to head out to the uncovered car to get a close-up view of the canyons.
