Our first stop on our tour is at Boyce Thompson Arboretum. The Arboretum is located 3 miles south of the town of Superior on U.S. 60. This is one of our favorite places to go, as well as one of the prettiest. While Boyce Thompson has always been dog friendly, we noticed they have stepped up the welcome even more! As you reach the main intersection of trails, there are dog bags (all they ask is that you clean up after your dogs!) as well as water dishes next to every fountain!
Sam has always enjoyed his visits to the Arboretum!
After all the rains we've gotten this year in Arizona, the flowers here were putting on quite a show!
There are also lots of world exhibits to look at. Here is Sam sitting outside the station in the Australian exhibit.
Here he is in the Herb Garden.

There are also many trails to wander through.
Aaron took this wonderful picture of a bee.
We highly recommend Boyce Thompson Arboretum as a great place to spend the day!
