In case you don't know where Sedona is, it's located in the North of Ari-
zona, about 30 miles directly south of Flagstaff, and west of the main
hyway 17. It is a metaphysical center for pshycics, healers, channelers,
etc. For thousands of years, the Verde valley was a sacred home of ancient
native americans that dissappered a few hundred years ago, but the modern
apache and other tribes still inhabit the wilderness areas in the area,
and have many sacred sites in the area they go to work thier medicine.

Sedona is the area that many pshycics claim there are electrical and
magnetic vortexes. Even some renown MIT grads and other scientific types
have written books on the electric/magnetic quality of the red rock formations
in the area. Incase you have never seen pictures, I assure you it is a wonder
of the world to see the vast red-rock mountains formed by iron-rich   
mineral formations that literally rusted for thousands of years oxidising
the mountains as they formed, causing the mountains to act as giant
capacitors (I'm not kidding).

Anyway, this is what many attribute for the regular, and various UFO's that
are sighted in the area. My father, a school teacher his entire life, recently
retired in an area close to a place called Fossile Creek. It is situated in
the Fossile Creek wilderness area of NE AZ. His good friend would tell him
of experiences and show him pictures of UFO sightings in the canyon there,
while vacationing in the area. The blue lights would travel leasurely thru
the canyons, as if avoiding flying high enough for surounding towns to
see. This was years ago my father was exposed to this. And it helped to
ignite my interest years later. Well, I finally visited the place last week.
Very remote, at least 10 miles from the next small village, and down in
a huge canyon, with a small hydroelectric station, and small cottages for
the utility workers to use. My fathers friend told him that the lights 
were seen EVERY night, about 15 years ago, and so he finally had his 
camera waiting after 2 or 3 nights of this stuff... I visited in the day,
but I do plan to go back and camp there next year.

Anyway, back to Sedona, which is about an hours drive from Fossile Creek,
I was at a place called Bell Rock. It is a famous place, and if you go to
Sedona, like about 6 million other tourists did last year, you will find it
on post cards and posters, etc. throuogh out the town.

It is one of the famous vortex areas there. It is supposed to be a Male
electrical vortex, and I'm not sure what that means (i need to read up)
it has something to do with the polarity of the electrical energy there.
It is supposed to amplify what ever emotions you are feeling good, or bad.
So while in the area, my lady and I were trying to think good things.
I was ther in the day on Thurs. and saw a black helicopter fly over...
I said to Wendy, who does not understand such things, "
what color is that helicopter?" She was busy, and didn't really care about
a helicopter, but humored me, "Black". She has much better vision than I
do, and I trust her basic observation skills better than my own. It looked
black to me, but I didn't tell her that until later... I asked her if she
saw any emblems or markings on it (It flew low and fast overhead). She
said she did not notice any.

I have read books on Sedona that commented on covert government activity 
there, and had pictures of black helicopters at the local airport there.
It looked just like what was in the picture I had seen. A friend who
knows the area told me last night, after I was back in CA, "if you hike
on one side of Bell Rock, they come by in helicopters and tell you to get
off the mountain." This I had not read before or known of.

We slept on Bell Rock the last night we were in Sedona, and it was a great
experience. There are large, flat rock shelves that make great perches for
sleeping bags, and you don't have to have a tent, because you are up above
the desert floor where most of the snakes and rodents live. the pshycics in
town, and the book "the Sedona Guide Book", a channeled work, tell of this
area, on the east side of Bell Rock, overlooking what is called CourtHouse
butte is the sight of an intergallactic space port. If you are in tune 
spiritually, you may be allowed to glimps red lights above or moving thru
this area at night with your inner vision, (I guess this means they might
not be photographable?). Wendy woke up at 3 am and heard the wolves howling
at the full moon, and at sunrise, I can only begin to descibe the joy of
knowing nature in such a beautiful place. 

the books on the area attribute the UFO presence there to the benevolent
space brothers, and talk of a permanently stationed mother ship above
Bell Rock. they also say that it is an interdimensional portal, and that
the vast energy available above Bell Rock is used to recharge the ships.

More in my next post...
