I flew into Phoenix, Arizona and drove to Prescott for our annual Bible Conference. My hotel was near the Granite Dells of Lake Watson, a beautiful view!  Afternoon birding from the balcony of our hotel after just arriving in Phoenix and driving to Prescott. Looking out I can see the lake and boulders where I hope to go hiking and birding this week.
