11 Picnic spots for 'eat outside day' in prescott, az

This week we are thinking about and celebrating local places, local-ness, the beautiful scenery we are lucky to have, and picnics.  Let me explain!

Tomorrow is International Picnic Day, not that we need a special holiday to make a picnic worthy of celebrating.

And since we want to share time with Dad on Sunday, I think we should all spend the day outside  with our family and friends enjoying a picnic.  There's nothing that sounds bad about that, right?  Consider that aside from some well-earned downtime, there are health and general wellness benefits too!!  

• It's a great way to slow down, leave that cell-phone and laptop behind... take a mental break
• Get a boost of natural vitamin-D, something many of us need more of
• Stretch out, breathe the fresh air, have no-where to go
• Food always tastes better when enjoyed outdoors (right?)
• Elevate all your senses by observing your surroundings
• And if you choose to hike it in, you'll work up that appetite plus get a good workout
• Most of all spend some quality, undistracted time with your fellow picnic-ers
