Decided at the last minute to head to Lake Powell and meet up with the family for some fun. Angela and Levi couldn’t go so I just drove down solo on Friday night.

Traffic was great and it only took me four hours to get there. I drove straight through to Bullfrog and slept in the back of the Yukon in the parking lot, which was pretty cool. I had a couple of beers and watched the stars for a long time. I always forget about the night sky and how obscured it is living in the city. Lake Powell is such a great area to see the stars and once again I was completely mesmerized by them. It was really nice to actually be able to see so many stars and the milky way.

I woke up early the next morning and Ken, Kori and Cooper had come along to pick me up at the dock. We took a short drive back to the camp, which I was glad wasn’t to far because I was worried about making them drive forever and back just to get me for one day on the boat.

The campsite pretty much perfect with shade much of the morning, which is really hard to come by at the lake, and was hidden back away from the main channel so we didn’t get any waves etc. Not long after we got back to camp Alexa and Abby woke up and came down to say hello. It was really good to see everybody in this setting again. Its been a while since I tagged along.

We made breakfast and then headed out for some sightseeing. We did some small hike to a crack canyon, jumped off cliffs, rode the water toys and just had a great time in general. I was only there for a day and night but I would say it was well worth it and had a great time.

The drive back was torture as I was really tired and I was really glad Cooper decided to ride with me because he kept me awake with some good jokes.
