Dogtown Lake, AZ

Aug. 8-10, 08 - Ken and I planned a weekend camping trip to Dogtown Lake, just a few miles south of Williams, AZ.  We had heard that the lakes in the area had been stocked with fish, so Ken bought a fishing license and packed his fishing gear.   Not being a fisherman, I planned on relaxing and prayed that the monsoon rains would let up for the weekend so that we could have a dry camp.
Ken fished for many hours, in many spots on the lake, and finally caught something . . .

but we threw it back in the water.   I wasn't in the mood for crawfish.  We didn't see very many other people catching fish either, so maybe it just wasn't a good area for fishing.

I relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful scenery (including the blue and grey herons and other birds), while Ken . . . 

studied and worked on a paper that was due on the first week of school.   At least he was happy.

All in all, a very relaxing, dry, and enjoyable weekend was spent at Dogtown Lake.
