We leave a bit earlier today and take a little detour to Lake Watson. The lake is only about 12 miles from our hotel, just outside Prescott. We pay the $2 parking fee, drive through the camp ground and park our car up on a hill from where we have a great overview of the lake. From there we walk down to the water and slowly make our way to the “Granite Dells”. We climb over big granite bolders and explore the area.

There is no wind and so it’s very hot. No question, that if the lake had been clear from algaes I would have gone for a swim.

We are fascinated by the play of light and shade and all the reflections in the clear surface of the lake.

Today we take it easy and return to the hotel early to take a nap before heading to Giovanni’s for a Pizza.
