Fool Hollow Lake Camping

The end of June we decided to skip out on the record breaking heat in Mesa and head for the cooler weather in Show Low, AZ.  We hiked, camped, and canoed at the beautiful Fool Hollow Lake Recreation Area before we had to return to the heat.  Previous to this trip we had not taken A. canoeing and I was a little nervous about how it would go down.  We ended up having so much fun canoeing.  A. just sat in the middle at first and looked around then he decided to splash with his hands and feet in the water and then he decided to just jump in head first.  Fortunately there was a little handle on the back of his life jacket so Matt was able to pull him back in before he had done more than get his head wet.  I still consider canoeing to be a success and hope we get to go again soon.
