Arizona vacation, day 4 (M)

On Monday we headed about 30 miles away to the Camp Verde area. First stop:


 Arizona Sycamore tree. Brandon and I were curious enough to flag down a ranger and ask.

 


 Then over to:

 
Brandon particularly enjoyed the Tiger Splash show:










Then on to some more cats and such.

This white tiger and lion have been raised together since babies and refuse to be separated, or so they say.


 
 If you ran along the fence, the tiger would run back and forth with you, like a dog.
Then, a stop at the Cliff Castle Casino for lunch at Johnnie Rockets, which was really a cover for Rick to check out the casino in case he wanted to play in one of the poker tournaments later in the week.
Then, to Tuzigoot National Monument (blogger loaded my photos out of order and it's to much of a hassle to change them) where Brandon and Rick were jealous of this license plate:


 More climbing with this one. Beings it was our third walkabout of the (warm) day, Jacob was not real pleased with us.
 Looking down from about midway up:






After that, everyone was pooped, so we drove back to Sedona and ordered pizza while watching Pawn Stars and more Duck Dynasty. We really need to get out more.
