LAKE POWELL


This last weekend we went up to Lake Powell. Levi's grandparents have a houseboat and a ski boat up there so we planned a trip to the lake with his family. We had a great time hanging out together! On Saturday we went on a long boat ride up the Lake and ended up at Rainbow Bridge. There is a little dock there to park your boat and you can take a really short hike to see rainbow bridge. It was really neat to see. Also when you are at rainbow bridge there was a park ranger up there and he showed us a dinosaur track. You could even see its claws in the rock. It was from a Dilophosaurus. That is the dinosaur that eats Newman in Jurassic Park. On that long boat ride we all got the chance to ride the tube behind the boat it was a lot of fun. Levi and I tried riding together but it didn't work out that great. We kept bouncing up and down and landing on each other, but it was still a lot of fun! During the evenings we sat around and played cards! On Sunday we took a little boat ride and parked next to some cliff walls and went swimming to cool off. It sure was HOT!!! That afternoon we cleaned up and Levi and I headed up to Utah to see my family for the Fourth of July weekend. I am excited because it seems like there is never really anything going on in Arizona for the fourth because fireworks are not allowed! In Utah there a bunch of different firework shows going on that we will definitely be watching. I was a little upset at Lake Powell because my camera has been acting up and it didn't work the whole time we were there. Sorry no pics. Then I turned it on when we got to Utah and it turned right on so hopefully it will continue to work while we are here so we can get some pictures of our trip.

That's cool. I've never actually been to lake powell before but it sounds kinda fun. That's a bummer about the camera not working for your first trip. Hopefully you will get some nice pictures while in Utah. Hope you guys have a fun 4th of July!
