white and blinking red light play tag over Sedona

i was sitting out in west sedona stargazing. I saw a large bright light towards Flagstaff. The object appeared to have a white halo around it. I thought it was a plane headed in my direction. (southeast)

Then I noticed a blinking red light coming from the east. I took that to be a plane. I kepted checking the white light, after several minutes, it didn't move. Also the blinking red light appeared heading in the direction of the white light. After several minutes it appeared that the blinking red light was going to cross the white. When the red light got near I jokingly said, "one of your better move." Just as i said that, the white moved. Looking at the white light, it moved in a southwest direction. The red light turned towards the white light. As the red light got near, the white light moved again, this time in a northwest direction. Again, the red light turned towards the white. Again, the white moved, but this time behind a mountain. And, the red light followed.

After several minutes, the red light came back out and headed back in the direction it came from. I didn't see the white light again. I must add I had a camera and camcorder but forgot to use it. Also I was visting Sedona.
