LAKE POWELL
———
There are not enough words in the world to describe how much Lake Powell means to me. Sadly this year I couldn’t go so that pretty much means my summer got CANCELED.
Lake Powell has so many beautiful qualities about it. I have made so many memories there that I will never forget. Lake Powell is a place where everyday when you wake up it’s going to be beautiful, fun filled day. Lake Powell is the kind of place where you just “go with the flow” and take the day by storm. While staying there, we would live in trailers for a week that barely had enough AC to help us cool down from the blazing sun looking down on us. I remember the first year I was there my dad had to make blinds to cover the windows up out of flattened beer boxes. Once everyone was up and ready to go was when the fun would really begin. We would all throw on our damp swim suits from the day before and head on down to the amazing marina. Then the Lake Powell experience begins.
Our time on the lake is spent on anything from cruising through the narrow separations between the massive cliffs or searching for domes so big that when you play music in them it’s like an amphitheater, to cliff jumping and doing an infinite amount of water sports. There’s never a second where we aren’t doing something. Once the days at Powell come to an end all you need to do is sit back in your lawn chair after a nice cold shower and just stare up into the sky full of an infinite amount of stars. You almost fall into a trance looking at those stars. After staring you come out of the trance and realize you have been looking at that sky for hours and now its time for bed so you can get a great night sleep so you van be ready for the next exhausting yet perfect day.
