More Lake Powell

This picture is Hole in the Rock. Before Lake Powell became a lake (or reservior), it was a huge dry canyon. When the pioneers came through the area, they had to figure out a way to descend the large cliffs. They developed a system where they tied their wagons and lowered them to the bottom of the canyon through this hole in the rock. Really amazing when you think of their ingenuity. Jacie gave kneeboarding a try and was a champ!

Lake Powell!! The best!

How we love Lake Powell and all things boating! We went down in June with Julie and her kids. Poor Mark couldn't get work off and had to say home. So we all went down and had a blast! I love Lake Powell. It is right up there on the top of my list of happy places!

Rendezvous!

Jordan just finished 4th Grade. (How that happened because it seems she was just born yesterday, I don't know!) The 4th Grade does a Mountain Man Rendezvous as they study Utah history. Don and I were over the Dutch oven lunch for 150 people. With great volunteers and dear friends, it was a success! Now we are Dutch oven pros! (Especially Don!) It was tons of fun and a neat day for everyone.

San Diego

Check out this 6 legged starfish!




I've been slacking on keeping up on our blog! It's been a long time since I added anything so I guess I better catch up! In April we went to San Diego with Don's brother Ivan, his wife Angie, and daughter Megan. We went to the San Diego Zoo, Sea World, and the Wild Animal Park. It was fun and Jacie decided she is going to be a Shamu trainer when she grows up! She loved Sea World! Here are some pictures to enjoy.
