Lakes, lakes, lakes! AZ, NM, OK, AR, MO


April 8-19, 2016

After many, many weeks in the desert states of Arizona and New Mexico, we were both craving water! Dave, especially, was getting quite weary of the starkness of the Western arid landscapes and was craving trees and lakes....

Although several of these lakes were artificially created by the damming of rivers, they did satisfy our yearning to see water!

April 8:  Lake Cochiti, AZ. Army Corps of Engineers campground 


April 11: Lake Ute State Park,NM.





Practically deserted, this park was not all that well kept.  However, it was the site for numerous blooming wildflowers.

April14: Pretty and well kept Lake Eufala State Park, OK.



April 15:  Lake Dardanelle State Park, AR.

We scored THE best site of the campground!  Lucky us!

Our first Canada goose! 
 April 17-18:  Lake Bull Shoals State Park, AR


One of numerous flowering dogwood trees
 April 19:  Lake Wappapello State Park, MO

We couldn't actually see the very large lake from this campground but were only there for the night....

    I like the look of that Dardanelle SP ... but I think it's in AR not AK -- heh, heh, heh ;-)
