Day 8
Today was uneventful, we packed up in the morning, had showers, did laundry (our first time) and hit the road mid day. We drove to Lake Pleasant, getting in after dark. We had reservations, and couldn't find the site, then some guy in a golf cart with a very bright flashing light led us to the day use area.... so we set up there. He came back and said it was the wrong spot (NO kidding!), but said we could stay. So we set up. It was dark, we could hear the lake. We didn't set up tents that night, it was our first night under the stars.

Day 9
I woke up as the sun was rising (I got a picture right from my sleeping bag!).... The lake was gorgeous. I then looked around and there were Saguaro Cactus plants EVERYWHERE. It was amazing. So I quietly got up, and there were a couple other people up, so I got one of them to come for a walk. We went and got some pictures in the cacti. It was great. I've never seen them before and it was exciting to wake up and be surrounded by them. Didn't even notice them the night before. There was lots of exciting news in the morning. Apparently some coyotes had been within about 30 feet of us, and we found several scorpions in the campsite. No incidences though. We packed up and drove to Yuma that day!
