Twenty. Years Ago March 9, 1990 Vol. 27, No. 46 Real estate sales figures in January 1990 shattered the January 1989 figure. The January 1990 total of $8,137,651 was almost double the 1989 figure of $4,288,475. Sedona real estate sales figures for December 1989 reached $8,906,042, .pushing 1989 total dollar volume sales to $98,256,146. In December 1989, the Coldwell Banker Residential Group listed Sedona in a fore- cast of the top 10 real estate markets for 1990. Real estate broker Nels Peterson attributed the differ- ence between the two January figures to media reports of the forecast. According to Peterson, since publication of the article the "phones have come off the wall." Twelve Years Ago March 13, 1998 Vol. 35, No. 50 There's plenty of intrigue in Sedona enough so that the City Council has approved adding another detective to the Sedona Police Department. The new position, funded by a grant, will increase the law enforcement staff to 31. The city has had one full- time detective since November 1988. "Cases continue to increase, and the seriousness of the cases is increasing," Police Chief Bob Irish told the Sedona City Council. "It's important that we have another detective full time. Investigations are becoming much more complex," City Council member Anita MacFarlane said. Mayor Ivan Finley said a Yavapai County judge told him the Verde Valley is "rampant with drugs," with amphetamines being the No. 1 issue. Six Years Ago March 12, 2004 Vol. 41, No. 52 Sedona residents signaled their desire for change in the City Council by electing Harvey Steam, John Bradshaw and Pud Colquitt, each of whom will join the council for the first time. Jerry Frey fell 41 votes short of the "50-percent-plus-l" majority needed to win the fourth seat. Frey will face incumbent Councilman Steve Nahmanson RED ROCK NEWS, Sedona, Arizona Wednesday, March 10, 2010 - 3B Photo courtesy of the Sedona Heritage Museum/Sedona Historical Society WALTER "SONNY" JORDAN JR. and orchard truck are shown in the late 1940s. No one knows how many miles the old Jordan truck traveled to Phoenix and other Arizona markets delivering Jordan family fruit and vegetables. "Sonny" Jordan, son of Walter and Ruth Jordan, willingly admits to a lifelong love affair with cars. Like most kids born and raised on a farm, the family's farm vehicles provided some of his first experiences "behind the wheel." Taffy to be groomed for his new home. On the way, around 7:30 a.m., with the sun in the wind- shield, Morgan was involved in a collision near State Route 89A and S, 12th Street. The impact broke Taffy's carrier open and the cat fled. A distraught Morgan put an ad in the Cottonwood Journal Extra on Dec. 20 and many friends looked for Taffy, but no one found him. He was gone. Then around 7 a.m. Friday, March 2, Morgan's phone rang. Julie Heitzman at Auto Fixation on State Route 89A, a cat lover herself, was on the other end and said, "I think we found your cat." Morgan said she was afraid Taffy had forgotten her, but when he jumped on her lap and began purring she knew there still was a connection. "He loves me. He didn't forget me," she said. A faint meow came through the tele- phone line. -- Constance Israel Larson Newspapers in the May 18 mail-in general election. A total of 2,996 votes were cast, which represented 55 percent of the town's registered voters. Three Years Ago March 9, 2007 Vol. 44, No. 46 Everyone likes a happy ending, and Virginia Morgan just experienced one. Her cat, Taffy, missing for three months, has returned. Morgan moved to Verde Valley Manor and had taken NAU choir, orchestr00t present Mozart masterpieces musicians and organist Elizabeth George, an NAU faculty member. The choir and orchestra will present three lesser-known sacred works by Mozart: Venite Populi, Misericordias Domini, and Sancta Maria, Mater Dei. These elegant, engaging works, composed while Mozart was in his 20s and lived in Salzburg, Austria, are not often performed. They are tuneful and energetic pieces that offer great insight into Mozart's breadth of style and compositional skill. The program's fourth selec- tion is Mozart's much-revered Ave Verum Corpus, an undis- puted treasure of the choral repertoire, according to a press release. Hutton will open the program with a lecture explaining the style and context of these four works. Performance of the works will follow. "We are very excited to share these works with the community," HuRon stated in a press release. "Most of them are rarely heard, which truly is a shame. There are so many gems in Mozart's sacred reper- toire -- there's just no reason not to perform them. I find that audiences are eager and open- minded, and we plan to give our audience a superb performance of these pieces." The lecture-recital is free and open to the public. The Church of the Red Rocks is located at 54 Bowstring Drive, Sedona. For more information, Call HuRon at NAU Choral Studies at (404) 918-1583 or e-mail to jeunyhutton@nau.edu.

In no time he was playing some of the hottest and biggest venues of the Detroit metropolitian area. His band at that time, The Killer Flamingos, played the legendary Cobo Hall concert arena. Hungry for travel and exposure to different sounds and music, Miller left Detroit in. the mid- 1990s to travel fo Europe where he spent months busking on the streets of France, Italy, London, Ireland and eventually Spain. It was there that he was seduced by the art of flamenco. After returning to the states, he was privileged to meet and eventually perform with La Dama Maria Del Carmen, a world renowned flamenco dancer who has performed with such flamenco greats as maestros Carlos Montoya and Juah Serrano. Miller will be bringing his years of disciplined study and performances of flamenco to the Marketplace Caf6 as the chef prepares some favorites from Spain's amazing culinary experi- ences. Music will be from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. The Marketplace Care is located in the Oak Creek Factory Outlets in the Village of Oak Creek. For reservations, call 284-5478.
