Sedona Hummingbird Festival Held on July 28th – July 30th

Posted by Sheri Sperry On July 26, 2017

Sedona Hummingbird Festival

The Sedona Hummingbird Festival is held at the end of July, beginning of August. Hummingbirds are coming back from more northern states and are starting to migrate back to the south this time of year and there is usually up to seven different kinds of hummingbirds that gather while preparing for the trip south. They reach a peak in August in Sedona and little by little they continue on the migration.

One of My Favorite Birds

I have feeders and hummingbird friendly plants all over my garden – front and back. Even during the winter months, I will see a couple of “regulars” around the yard. But June thru September is when there are five to ten hanging around. Now, are they just passing through? I really don’t know if they are the same birds or not.

Feeders and Nectar

I have feeders in the back and in the front. There are some of these birds that are territorial and they will watch for and scare away other hummingbirds.

Some tricks I have learned to help keep the hummingbirds around:

Have at least two different lines of sight for the feeders. This will keep a territorial bird at only one vantage point.
Keep the feeders out of the sun. The nectar will be more resistant to fermentation. Change it often. Gage how much is being used daily and only fill up your feeder to that level.
Make your own – I use organic raw sugar – 1 to 4 ratio (quarter cup of sugar the rest water) – IMO – The red juice is not healthy and the birds I feed won’t drink it anyway!
If you get ants climbing down into the nectar – get a round piece of plastic with a 2 inch diameter and cut a line to the middle. place it on the wire that the feeder hangs on. place a generous amount of vaseline on the surface and the ants won’t be able to pass down the wire.
Do your best to clean the feeder with only hot water. Avoid using any detergents or soap. The picky hummers won’t come back to the feeder!

Sedona Hummingbird Festival – Event

When : July 28 – 30

Javelina Babies!

Watch Wild Javelina Roam Sedona Real Estate

Javelina Roam Sedona Real Estate

Many people think that javelina are hairy pigs. They are not. Collard Peccary is what they are called and are the only wild ‘pig like’ animal found in the USA. Wild boar are found on Catalina Island off the coast of Southern California. Javelina usually travel in groups small or large. I have seen as many as 50 grazing on grass grubs. We also have a single Javie come by that we nickname “Harold”.

The javelina can make a real mess of your garden areas. Like pigs, they eat just about anything. We have gates in out courtyard and every once in awhile, I would come home to roots and flower pots all over the courtyard. I finally saw a javelina come through the 4 inch opening in the gate! Once I put up rabbit wire, no more problems.

In the summer, they burrow a shallow trench to get to the cool dirt under the Pinon Pine, Juniper and Arizona Cypress behind our home. They also use this area for birthing. Many times we have gone outside to hear what sound like a hurt javelina, only to find a baby or two the next day.

As you watch the video, the javelina look very docile, don’t let that fool you! They can go after each other if one of the other navies comes after their food.

One more thing about javelina. They have a unique order that you can smell many yards away. After a rain the smell is even more pungent!

In Sedona, homes have to be built to allow wild animals to travel.

Why You Should Select Steel Instead Of Wood For Your New Home Construction

Posted by Sheri Sperry On June 14, 2017

Steel vs. Wood

Steel Home Construction

Soldier’s Pass Sedona Arizona

This steel home construction has been under construction on the street that I take to get to my house. Up until recently, I have been watching them continue to work on the foundation. Months and months of digging out solid rock to form this foundation. Then within weeks, the framing started to go up. Low and behold, it was all steel. The picture above is the second story. The second story floor is even metal.

I have only seen two or three other homes being built that were steel construction. Of course, these homes are in the multi-million dollar range. The house right next to this one was built for $3.4 million.

Have you ever wondered why some homes are now using steel in the construction rather than wood framing? My first thought is that when you are building a high end home you might as well spend the money on the best material. Right?

What Is The Cost Steel vs. Wood?

I read some research that states that a DIY site did. They built 3 separate walls 10 feet long, 8 feet high with 3 electrical boxes and drywall on both side. Materials were purchased at Home Depot. Their conclusion was this:

Wood framed wall with nails: Total cost = $102.08
Wood framed wall with screws: Total cost = $103.54
Wall framed with steel studs: Total cost = $114.37

Roughly the cost is a little over 10% higher.

What Are The Benefits?

As I review some of these benefits, your area may not even fit some of the weather profile. We are assuming the steel home is properly constructed.

Steel is eco-friendly – made completely with recyclable material
Termites can’t eat steel. Pests won’t nest. Rats can’t chew through it!
Steel is safe from mold and mildew.
Earthquake resistant to seismic zone 4. Great for California
Strong enough to remain standing during 150 mph winds.
With a steel roof, can handle much more snow with out collapse of the roof.
Resists fire!
Steel framing is lighter and stronger than wood and it will last…

This steel home construction is going to be a top luxury home. Price of materials and quality does not matter in a home like this. The view alone is priceless. The average price of all the homes in Soldier’s Pass is over $1.4 million with many homes going over 2 or 3 million. There at least a handful of homes that are $3 to $4 million each. Soldier’s Pass is a special area.

However, there are those builders who will tell you that the price per square foot with steel is less that of a conventional framed home. Do your homework. You may be better off with steel home construction.

Frequently Asked Question – How Is The Sedona Traffic?

Posted by Sheri Sperry On June 7, 2017

Sedona Traffic

No, we are not going to talk about the red rock Jeep traffic that may actually cause traffic on the trails! That is a conversation for another day. Generally all the professionals who navigate the jeep trails do a really good job of managing those trails such as the upkeep, as well as creating an atmosphere that moves the flow of vehicles through the trails transparently to the tourists and other vehicles and their drivers.

Tourism

We have two seasons where the tourism swells above normal which increases traffic. Our local population is around 10,000 but on any given day there are 20,000 tourists visiting the city. On holiday weekends that number can grow even larger.

Spring & Autumn

Those seasons with larger than normal tourism numbers include Spring and Fall, with Spring lasting much longer than in years past. Here are the reasons why there is more tourism:

Arizona has had National Football Championship games
All Star Basketball games
The Waste-Management golf tournament
Cactus League Baseball
More access to hotel rooms
Infrastructure (loop freeways) built out and other freeway expansion projects including Interstate 17 to Sedona

In Sedona we have had aggressive tourism campaigns targeting areas like California and Phoenix. We have had a Marriott Courtyard built, the first hotel in 12 years giving us more rooms. Another section of a popular craft and gallery shopping and restaurant area (Tlaquepaque North) opened up in late Summer of 2016.

Arizona residents and many California residents travel by car to Sedona. If you fly into Phoenix, you generally will rent a car to get to Sedona. This creates more traffic.

What Is Sedona Doing To Minimize Congestion?

One of the first major projects taken on was SR 179. The highway was made wider and eleven round-abouts were put in to help make traffic flow easier.

Uptown Sedona parking and pedestrian walkways were redesigned for efficiency. Traffic lanes were added to help traffic coming out of the canyon flow easier into the Uptown area.
Tram routes were added to ease vehicle traffic through the city.
Additional parking studies are being conducted right now with the possibility of shuttle services from these remote parking areas to the Uptown area. Highly regarded Kimley Horn is conducting the feasibility study for the city of Sedona.
Other areas being highly considered are traffic meters on the 89A in Uptown. Implementing traffic control restrictions between the hours of 1pm to 5pm. These hours may be extended based on traffic conditions. There will be turn lane restrictions and one way traffic to alleviate traffic bottlenecks.

Uptown Traffic Flow Map – Enlarge

Summary

Because Sedona does care about traffic control, many things the city has done and is in the process of doing will alleviate traffic congestion. However I hear from many REALTORS® that clients have decided that Sedona was just too congested for them and they have moved on. Generally, the increase starts in late February around the week of the Film festival and goes through April. Most of the year other than holidays, the traffic flows well. Everything is very close in Sedona so only a few minutes are added to your trip. Really bad congestion might add 15 total minutes to a trip.

For me, traffic is nothing compared to Southern California or even Phoenix. I would never trade moving away because of the traffic. As a local, you know how to maneuver through it or pick the right time of day to run errands. Sedona is a life choice I will make all day long!

Tracking Sedona Weather – Common Misconceptions Dispelled

Posted by Sheri Sperry On June 6, 2017

Tracking Sedona Climate & Weather

Tracking Sedona Weather is not always the first question a client has when buying a home in Sedona. But as a client makes that decision to buy a home, they want to know what the weather or climate is like throughout the year. Many people have a false assumption that the weather is similar to Phoenix. The chart on the left was August 17, 2016 around 5 PM.

Now, before those of you who live in the Phoenix start defending your weather. It was the Phoenix and Colorado River weather that brought us to Arizona. We used to take vacations in Palm Springs in the summer. Why? For a young family, vacations were cheaper in a city that all but shut down in the summer. Heat doesn’t bother us. (Well…. not too much!) After all, it is a dry heat and the kids were fishes. They loved to swim.

Humidity Not the Same…

Clients who are not familiar with Arizona do not realize that humidily is different here. You do not feel it. It is more of a danger for hydration than for comfort. Where as in many locations you can gasp for breath as you walk outside. It is not the same here. In winter, the cold is not biting. Generally, we wear a sweater. The last time a high temperature was below 32º was 1 day back in 2012. If you have read any other posts, you know that snow basically evaporates within a day or two. One other thing I bring up is running the air conditioner. Generally it is on less than 12 hours a day during the hottest time of the year. At night, windows are open 8 to 9 PM until 9-10 AM, the next day. I will also compare Sedona to Southern California weather. Most people want 4 seasons.

Not Too Hot Or Not Too Cold…..

Let’s face it, clients don’t want lots of snow or lots of heat.
So this is a genuine concern. Because this question is asked from everybody who visits Sedona, my husband bought a weather station in 2010 and displays the weather in real time from our backyard. He has been drawn to it from his flying days. When you fly, you have to become somewhat of an expert and so it became a hobby!

He tracks many indices by month – It takes about

1/2 hour to track the indices below every month.

Here are some Categories being tracked….

National Burger Day – Check Out This Beauty At Enchantment Resort

Reflections On The Real Meaning of Memorial Day – A Special Focus …

Posted by Sheri Sperry On May 26, 2017

Reflections On The Real Meaning of Memorial Day

Monday May 29, 2017

Riverside National Cemetery

My Son – Ryan

Memorial Day – Ah Yes! …The unofficial start of summer. It is a long weekend; time to take the a family out on a trip or a picnic or to the beach, lake or mountains. Some folks will go to the desert or might spend time visiting Sedona Arizona. It can even be a very busy time for Realtors® working with customers search for real estate. Most of us will BBQ hamburgers, and hot dogs. It is a time to get away, have fun, relax and enjoy the company of others.

For some there will be no rest or relaxation. Please read on…

Memorial Day….I know that before my son became a Marine in 1998, I looked forward to time off! I did not concentrate as much about what this day really is all about. Once Ryan became a Marine and terrorist attack on September 11th happened, I had a laser focus on anything that pertained to our military as well as our first responders. I would like to share my personal connection as well as some other interesting facts and history with you.

A Little History

Without getting into too much history, the Federal Government declared Waterloo, New York, the official birthplace of Memorial Day. It first celebrated the day on May 5, 1866. This was a community wide event. Businesses closed and the town’s people adorned the graves of soldiers in a similar fashion as we do in the modern era.

The beginnings of Decoration Day, now Memorial Day, started on a more national push when on May 5th 1868, General James Garfield (later elected our 20th President), gave a speech at Arlington National Cemetery. This was a commemoration of the union soldiers who lost their lives during the civil war. Northern states started recognizing this day, one by one. Many of the Southern states continued to honor confederate soldiers on different days until after World War I.

After WWI, the holiday progressed to honor all Americans who died in all conflicts or wars while serving their country. In 1968, Congress passed the Uniform Monday Holiday Act. This established the last Monday in May as a federal holiday. Many people confuse Veteran’s Day with Memorial Day.

My Personal Connection

My son Ryan, (pictured above and below) called me (2011) just to catch up a couple of days before Memorial Day. Part of our conversation centered around his job and Memorial Day. You see, Ryan lives Memorial Day every day. He has the honor of working at Riverside National Cemetery. This cemetery is the 3rd largest cemetery managed by the National Cemetery Administration and is the most active (based on internments) since 2000. Ryan thoroughly enjoys his job and the people he works with; all are Veterans and many (like him) are Marines.

See a fabulous aerial video of this National Cemetery here.

Notable Persons Interned

Among the notable persons buried there are five Medal of Honor recipients. I cannot do this list justice so please click on this link (Notable Persons) and cursor down to read about these Heroes. They are many more than I can list here and it is fascinating to read!

Colonel Aaron Bank – founder of the Green Berets
Yeoman 1st Class Melissa Barnes – killed on 9-11-01 in Terrorist Attack on Pentagon
Captain Lillian Keil – One of the most decorated Women in American military history
Joe Morris – Navajo Code Talker – lied about his age to serve in Pacific theater WWII
Seven Tuskegee Airmen
Tech Sgt George Baker – Disney Cartoonist who created “Sad Sack” during WWII
Motor Mach. Mate 1st Class Patrick McMahon – was badly injured and was towed to safety by the future President John F. Kennedy – Lt. Commander of PT 109.

Reverence

Ryan participates in the burial of many of our unsung Heroes who have passed on. One thing that really struck me is the reverence that the grounds crew has as they perform their duties. The military and our Veterans have always had a strong bond. Anyone who serves their country or their community and lives in harms way, such as our firefighters and peace officers, experienced this same kinship. They consider each member part of their family. This fellowship is part of the fabric of America.

This crew, treats these fallen Heroes with complete respect from the moment they start digging the grave site. They are in the background when the services are performed in case a family member needs something. When there is no one that attends the burial, this crew is there for their comrade.

Respect & Admiration

After my conversation, I have an even greater respect and admiration for these selfless Veterans, who care for our family & friends who have passed on. One of my dear friends has her father buried in Riverside. I know her father’s grave is well taken care of.

God Bless Our Fallen Heroes

I would ask that instead of remembering our fallen Heroes on just one day a year, we take pause and spend a moment every so often to reflect on all those Americans who have served and protected us from the infancy of our country until today. God Bless them..and while we are at it, let’s not forget all those first responders who put their lives on the line everyday for people like you and me.

~ ~ ~

Hold a special place in your heart for those people who tend the National and State cemeteries around the country who live and breath Memorial Day every day of the year…..

Why They Call It A Butterfly Bush…

Posted by Sheri Sperry On May 20, 2017

Our Sedona Weather Affords Us A Variety Of Plants & Flowers

One of My Favorites Is The Butterfly Bush

It is all part of the Sedona Life Style

The flowers come in many colors from white to dark purple. According to the Farmer’s Almanac, butterflies prefer the lavender or mauve color. The plant is robust to zone 5. It will remain evergreen from zone 8 south. Sedona is in zone 8b. As you get into the canyon the weather gets colder and you will probably have to cover the plant in the winter.

The Butterfly Bush provides nectar to butterflies as well as other insects and hummingbirds. This bush does not support butterfly reproduction and the lifecycle. You need to also plant a “host” plant such as milkweed if you want butterflies to stay.

In Sedona – Blooms Start In April – Hearty By June

There is very little maintenance to these bushes. They will grow tall so prune them back severely. during the late winter early spring. Check with your local nursery for the best time for pruning in your area.

Jerome Arizona ~ Fifth Largest Town In Arizona Territory Hosts 52nd Historic Building Tour

Posted by Sheri Sperry On May 6, 2017

Jerome Arizona sits on the side of Cleopatra Hill located in the Mingus Mountains just 40 minutes to the west of Sedona. It is a historic town of 400 residents that has gone through many phases over the decades including a take over by the hippies in the 60’s and 70’s!

Visit Jerome Arizona — **This is for sale! Click image for listing info.**

Fifth Largest Town In Arizona Territory

At one point in the 1800’s, this mile high mining town was the fifth largest in the Arizona Territory (1899) . It was known far and wide for it’s wild & rowdy saloons and debauchery! What a colorful history it has. Mae West was known to spend much of her time down the hill from Jerome in Cottonwood bars hopping with cowboys, ranchers, and miners. We all know what a colorful character she was!

Old Town Cottonwood is taking a page from Jerome’s book and transforming the historic district into eclectic and charming shops, winery tasting rooms and a variety of restaurants that will delight all palettes with unique flavors and cuisine. One of my favorites is Nic’s Italian Bistro right on Main Street.

Jerome Is Unique

The unique feature of Jerome is the way these 1800 and turn of the 20th century dwellings and businesses dot the hilly landscape. Many sit on stilts and are built on land that drops off dramatically from street level. Other dwellings require you to climb lots of stairs to get to the main level. Just about every house or business has a view that most of us would die for.
All in all, this makes for a great time visiting these unique shops and restuarants. One of my favorite restuarants to visit in Jerome is the Assylum in the Grand Hotel. Jerome is reknowed for being a ghost town and
relishes the Halloween season. The Grand Hotel and Assylum really spruces things up for Halloween.

52nd Annual Historic Home and Building Tour

On May 20th and 21 from 9am to 3pm, Jerome is holding it’s 52nd Historic Home & Building Tour. It is the longest running tour in the state. You will not be disappointed! Plenty of steps and winding paths makes this tour not handicap accessible. The cost is $20 for adults and $10 for children. Allow yourself at least 2 to 4 hours to get through all the homes. Guests will have the comfort of Spook Hall to enjoy entertainment and seating while waiting for their tour to begin. Vans will transport the guests to the various locations. It is less crowding in the early afternoon so plan accordingly.

Contact the Jerome Chamber of Commerce at 928-634-2900 for more information about the tour and other events in the area.
