Lake Powell

Guy has been wanting to go to Lake Powell on a family vacation for years. Rent a houseboat and spend the week on the water would be ideal. We never have, but he wants to do it even more now. Our campsite had a great view of the lake. We could sit in our lounge chairs, read use the computer and enjoy a quiet life. It was great. We did a boat tour on Lake Powell. It is not your average lake. It has twists and turns and cliffs and beaches. It is as deep as 500 feet in some area. It is in Arizona and Utah. Our time here was to short.

the clouds are so big and puffy



some of the twist and turns

not only is the lake beautiful, so is the countryside

our campsite, sitting in those chair you see the Lake

Guy and Ripley on the beach, it was a very deceptive walk
you thought it was just down the hill, but no there was another...

while on the boat, that's about 400 feet of cliff and 400 under the water

the Lake has over 2000 miles of shore line, and is used by
all types of water enthusiasts  

so peaceful and calm
