Lake Powell

I love my family vacations. So often I hear people grumbling about family members or family reunions they have to go to. When my family gets together, we always have fun. This year we vacationed in Lake Powell. Four days on the lake. My family is one of the few crazy families who gets up at the crack of dawn to be the first ones on the lake. I am still amazed at how early Dad wakes us up. However, I love gliding across the water so it is all worth it. The days were full of more wakeboarding, more water skiing, riding Mable, swimming back in coves, playing in the sand, going down the slide from the houseboat, or just floating in the water. And when we were so exhausted that we could barely lift our pinky, we just kicked back and played some Rook. Finally at the end of each day, we slept on top of the houseboat under the stars, watching in awe and amazement at the multitude of stars that peak out when you're away from the city lights, and seeing the occasional shooting star. Needless to say, we had a fabulous time.
