Lake Powell

So here are some pictures of our vacation at Lake Powell. We had tons of fun even though the weather was not traditional Lake Powell weather. We were able to experience all elements such as sun, rain, hail, wind and tornado warnings. So this first picture describes the first of the week and the clouds we faced.
I thought Lowell took a picture of the hail storm we encountered. It made me feel like I was a kid again in Bear Lake because no summer trip there was complete without hail, but here is a picture of the runoff from the storm.
So while it rained we played cards and watched movies. The kids were troopers through it all.

When the sun decided to come out we forced the kids out to play. We had a perfect spot because we could hike, play frisbee golf (which we made up the course) and play in the sand and then have contests (boys versus girls of course). We also had a great sand hill that we would hike up but then the last day the kids came up with a great idea of riding the knee boards down it instead.





See the sun really does exist. We started to lose hope and then it came out. The next post will have all the water pictures. So stay tuned.

Thank goodness for the houseboat. We were safe and WARM away from all the elements that came our way. While also offering a fun slide off the back for the kids to ride.


Here are just a few cute snapshots of my boys enjoying themselves. All in all, we would go again. It was fun just to be away from all the cares of the world!
