Miller's in Pinetop (4) - "free day"

Day 4 in Pinetop was a "free day" meaning there was no planned activity. Our family really wanted to explore tall mountains but the forest was closed so we needed to stick around town. We chose to poke around "Fools Hollow Lake". Really any body of water is sufficient for city kids.....they are excited by most anything!

Studying the ducks....

After watching the ducks for awhile - the kids realized they were eating crawdads! Here is one gulping one down. After this the kids were on their own mission to hunt them down.

They relied on the experience and wisdom of older cousin, Kevin!

I am surprised no one went in the water by accident!

Little explorers

Father and son time....

It was a nice spot....hot though....so we didn't stay long and headed back for some swimming in the pool!
