While driving north on I-94 in Wisconsin, just north of the Illinois border, we drove past a road sign that said: “Bong Recreation Area.” I didn’t get a picture, but there are pictures of the sign on Images.Google.com.

Lyman Lake State Park in Arizona

The Arizona Republic (Arizona’s state newspaper) allows people to be bloggers. I posted the following to my AzCentral.com blog on 18 February 2009.


We spent Presidents Day 02009 weekend in a cabin at Lyman Lake State Park. On previous visits we stayed in yurts.

Lyman Lake State Park is located about 10+ miles south of St. Johns on US Hwy-191/180. Using a loop comprised of US Hwy-60, AZ Hwy-260 and AZ-Hwy-87, a Tempe/Lyman Lake road trip is a 460-mile scenic drive.

Like water? Lyman Lake is huge.
Like petroglyphs? Lyman Lake has them.
Like to hike? Lyman Lake has hiking trails.
Like day trips? Lyman Lake makes a great hub.
Like to experience silence? Lyman Lake provides it.
Like New Mexico’s mother nature? Lyman Lake is next to NM.
Like constantly morphing weather? Lyman Lake won’t disappoint.
Like to see star filled night-time skies? Lyman Lake on clear nights.
Like to hear rustling trees and howling winds? Lyman Lake is the spot.

We visited Lyman Lake State Park this last weekend because we had read where it is at risk of being closed. We hope it doesn’t happen, but if they border the park up it could be years before it re-opens.
