Weekend in Northern Arizona

We took a little weekend trip to Northern Arizona for the weekend to get out of the 100+ heat of Phoenix. We had a great time exploring the area and got a kick out of the "lakes" in the area. We drove down these dirt roads for over an hour only to find a little tiny lake with absolutely noting around it. The best place we found was the reservoir. We would love to go back there to do a little day trip with a canoe. It was nice to just be out of the blazing heat in Phoenix.

This was the cabin we stayed in.

This was one of the lizards we saw on one of our drives to find a lake.

This was long lake. I think they call it "Long Lake" because it takes you a really

long time to get there and then there is absolutely nothing around it.

The only thing around was this crane bird and he flew away as soon as we drove up.

We saw this lizard laying on the road.

We didn't want to build a fire and burn the place down so we decided to make some

S'Mores "City Style" on the BBQ.

Skipping rocks on "Potato Lake"

This is Potato Lake. Another lake we drove over an hour to see.

It is Arizona, what do you expect.

You have to have a walking stick.

According to Sophia "This is how you do it Country"!

(I think this is from the Hannah Montana Movie) Eric and I laughed so hard.

Sophia loves to pose for pictures.

The "Suareg" was so dirty the girls got a kick out of writing our names on the back of it.

Look there is actually water.

This was a stick bug the girls found on the ground.

It really looked like a stick.

Emma worked really hard to build this fort. Just kidding, it was already there.
