Flagstaff_August 2024

Luna and I took a quick day trip to Flagstaff today!  I was so ready to get out of this heat!  It was a PERFECT 72 degrees!  We hiked the Aspen Loop Trail, normally 2.5 miles (and rated Easy to Moderate), but with construction of a new chairlift the total distance ended up being 1.8 miles.  It wasn’t really a hard hike at all.  It seemed that all the ‘uphill’ was toward the end which had my lungs working pretty well by the end!

The wildflowers were amazing!  This will be a beautiful hike to do again in another month or two when the colors are changing and all the Aspens are a vibrant yellow!

When we finished hiking we wandered around Downtown Flag!  A sweet Barista offered Luna a Pup Cup as we were passing by the shop!

She was impressed!

We had lunch at Alejandro’s because I was craving Nachos!  Note to self…  Their nachos totally sucked!  Better luck next time!
