Sedona tops USA Weekend 'beautiful places' poll
Bizjournal ^ | 5/18/03 | staff

Arizona home to one of the most beautiful locations in the United States.

The USA Weekend Magazine has rated the Red Rock Country in Sedona as the Most Beautiful Place in America.

The selection was made by travel writers, outdoor enthusiasts and relatives of the magazine's staff.

Sedona beat out the likes of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, and sights in Hawaii and Florida.

The guidelines for voters were simple, that the place be accessible to the public and reasonably well known.

Only if there are lipstick lesbians there - I see too many of the other kind here in San Francisco. ;)

Actually, I'll be in Scottsdale for the week - Sedona is just a day trip.

Be sure to have a cocktail at the Pointe Resort in Phoenix. Lovely views and lovelier cocktail waitresses!

Well, I am from the country area. There are some nice ones around me. I hear there are some nice places in South Jersey as well.

I saw Elizabeth, New Jersey in 1993.

My eyes are still healing. ;)

Isn't Springsteen's childhood home on the protected historic places? If so, feel free to torch it (kidding). ;o)

I like Springsteen just slightly more than I like BONO, so that is not a problem!

Nothing can compare to the beauty of the bay area city of Richmond. LOL

You are supposed to ask them for protective goggles when you enter the state. Only those who have built a tolerance can deal with the air!!

On a side not, if you were breathing the air for an extended span of time, you may want a lung scan!

Richmond is pretty bad, but at least you can see the East Bay hills, and look across the Bay and see San Francisco and Marin County. You know there is an end to Richmond's squalor, and not too far away.

Just went through in an airport shuttle van from Newark to Princeton. That was enough to ruin my eyes - but my lungs got through OK. ;)

Oakland and Berekely aren't much better. But overall, the Bay area is purdy!

Just my opinion, but the most beautiful place in the WORLD to me is The Gladiator Men's Spa.
