Lake Powell - Day One

At long last we made our first trip this year to Page, AZ and Lake Powell. We arrived here on Tuesday and will spend Wednesday through Saturday on the lake (except for the evenings where we will stay in the relaxed, air-conditioned comfort of the hotel). I've never understood how anyone could camp on the lake and enjoy it. Today was over 100 degrees. We had a great day today soaking in the sun, cruising the lake, swimming, tubing, eating and wake boarding. Even Camryn gave wake boarding a try. Temperatures hit triple digits and the water was a very pleasant 78 degrees.



Kristi has always been the best skier and wake boarder in the family - so she gets her picture posted. Tomorrow I'll post pictures of the rest of us in various stages of being drug through the water or crashing.




This is our boat, named the "Aquaholic".

I captured this picture of Taylor when we'd stopped for lunch. She is a wonderful daughter.

There is a great canyon wall where the boats don't drift and there is always shade. We stop here on every trip for shade, food and relaxation.

Mike would be in heaven here with his camera. We've been coming to Lake Powell for almost ten years and I never cease to be amazed by the beauty that surrounds us.
