Flagstaff

This is our third day in Flagstaff and our tenth on the road so we dialed it back a bit and rested.  We did travel to to far side of town to visit Flagstaff Arboretum.  It was three mile down a washboard country road and the squirrel doesn't like washboard.  The arboretum is billed as a mountain garden and is a bit rustic by Kingwood standards but it was an enjoyable 3 hours.  As a finale we attended their raptor presentation and had owls and hawks flying within three feet of our heads.  A nice place and it was free due to our Kingwood membership.


We went back to the Moose in the early afternoon but not before visiting the Snowbowl which is Flagstaff's winter ski resort.  It sits at about 10,000 feet so the Squirrel got a workout. Tomorrow he can rest while the Moose finds Grand Canyon.
