Memorial Day Weekend 2013

We relaxed over Memorial Day weekend. Sunday afternoon/evening we listened to live music in the park and Monday we had some friends over for a little swim party.

Marley enjoys some tunes at the park.

Marley gets airborne.

Grayson has arrived with popsicles....2 boxes worth.

Sunday Morning in the Park

Sunday we got out early to beat the heat and spent a couple of hours at the park. Then the dog treated us to breakfast.

Boyce Thompson Arboretum State Park

Saturday we ventured out east to Superior, AZ and visited the Boyce Thompson Arboretum State Park, which covers 323 acres of the Tonto National Forest.

We have arrived.



That black "blur" is actually a butterfly.



According to the sun dial, Marley's shadow indicates that it is approx. 12:50 PM.





Gray takes a break from the hiking to work on some dance moves.

You will notice from this point forward Marley is wearing different clothes....that is because about 1 minute after this photo was taken Grayson pushed her in the lake.

These brave guys are not afraid of dangerous cliffs or snakes.

The kitchen help prepares our meal.
