Lake Powell

Wayne, Kaelyn and I were lucky enough to make a quick trip down to Lake Powell with Wayne's Dad and two brothers over UEA weekend. We had a fun trip! We stayed in Page, AZ. The weather was beautiful, high 80's and the water was not too bad. We spent a couple days on the lake and a couple days hiking some really cool slot canyons.

Kickin' it on the boat.

Climbing up the treacherous rock wall, okay maybe treacherous doesn't quite fit.

There were like 10 of these pools of chocolate milk, I mean dirty water we had to trek through.

My father in law talked me into driving the boat on our way back to the marina Friday night. It was the first time I had ever driven a boat and we were going top speed. So as we were going through the channel below, I was holding the wheel as steady as I could. This channel was at least 200 feet deep. All of the sudden the boat started turning out of control and I couldn't do anything but scream. I was so scared, I thought we were going to hit one of the walls, I literally had no control of the boat, I didn't even know how to stop it. Luckily Wayne's dad got it stopped while I had a mental break down. We still have no idea how it happened, but one of the prop blades just fell off. We didn't hit anything, it was the craziest and one of the scariest things I've ever had happen to me. I told Wayne it was my sign in life that driving boats is not for me. Other than that the trip was definitely a SUCCESS!
