Lake Powell our August and September Trip

Labor Day Weekend marks the last time most people come to the lake for the year.  The people of Page call it "the end of the season".  For us, we went to the Lake Powell before "the end of the season".

There is No End of the Season for us!

We will come back soon!

We hope you enjoy and most of all can hopefully experience what we did with the following pictures.

Enjoying a fun ride outside of the cove where we are staying.

Coming back in to our boat.

Arriving back to the boat to beach the seadoo...

Oh boy, preparing our dinner on the beach!

Dinner is ready and we are going to have a lovely meal on the boat.

I really love this picture because of the reflection of my handsome PC!

Every single NIGHT at dinner time, we had guests!

They loved their dinner too.

We sure do enjoyed our boat thoroughly!  It is so nice to have a cabin with a full galley (refrigerator, stove and microwave), dinning areas below and above on the deck,  a walk-in bathroom/shower and a berth (bedroom) with a queen-size bed.

Each day we tried to do something different and every single day we would take the time to read our books, swim and stare at the lovely night skies that entertained us with satellites, shooting stars, Milky Way, planets that were showing their beauty like Mars, Saturn, Venus, Jupiter, Moon and stars that sparkled brightly Vega, Polaris and so many others stars, of course the Big Dipper!  Both of us used our Sky Scout to identify many other stars in the sky each night.

We went on a romantic picnic at West Canyon.  This area we have visited many times riding our seadoo.  It is amazing how some houseboats are able to go deep into the fingers of this canyon.  One place is always taken when we have come by.  But TODAY, we were able to enjoy our lunch!

This is the BEACH shaded in the middle of the afternoon. 

This beach is very popular and we are fortunate to have it all by ourselves!

There is enough room for at least two or three houseboats along with toys; boats and seadoos.

The beach has always been occupied when we visited and the water is smooth as glass and perfect for seadoos, swimming and skiing.

I walked behind where we had our lunch to take this picture of my PC!

This place may be exposed to a small amount of daring houseboats to arrive and it is the last place in the finger of this canyon that a houseboat can go safely and turnaround. 

This is the point where this area starts to get narrow.

So let's take a tour!

This is ONE BIG Tree in the Middle of the water!!!

Lucky to have a seadoo and not in our boat when exploring.

How about this for a Jacuzzi or a get-wet pool, Mother Nature has given us one that doesn't require a thing except People.

We told you this is Narrow!  No Houseboats can get by this rock in the middle of the water.  We are lucky to have a seadoo to explore this glorious canyon.

Time to head back to our sanctuary...

We went hiking!

This is "our" bay - so private and flat.

This is "our" beach - so clean and big.

No time schedule for us, just tons of time with each other to do what we desire.  Let's go on the Seadoo!  

We went to another area of the lake that is popular - just on the other side Cookie Jar.  This place has plenty of open beaches that is completely full with families and toys this weekend!  This bay is huge and terrific for everyone to play and watch each other all at the same time.

That is not us, they are triplets - all little boys skiing behind their parent's boat.  Everyone is enjoying watching these three brothers who just might be famous one day.

This is a young teenage girl having a lot of fun Surfing behind the boat.  

Yes, surfing!

We had another great day on Lake Powell today and were very happy for all of the people who are also enjoying their weekend.  

Time for us to start back to our boat.

  On Saturday evening, we packed up our boat to get a good start in the morning to go home.

PC wanted to give the boat a terrific ride without towing the seadoo especially since we are much lighter than when we arrived 6 days earlier.  PC asked me to take on the task to ride the seadoo.  Oh my, what a task that was, LOL!!!!

We hope you enjoyed our trip with us.  

Thank you for visiting us today and come back often!
