I was just cleaning up my desktop and found this quote I had saved a while ago. It's so good, I thought I'd post it for you!

Lake Powell 2010 Part 1
I am so lucky to have married into a "Lake Powell Family." Mikey's sister, Michelle, has a houseboat down in Bullfrog and she's been kind enough to invite us every year since we've been married, and we've been kind enough to accept! Hehe! So here's the Lake Powell 2010 Crew:
Mikey, Karie, Sydney, Heidi, Kerry, Ethan, Russ, Colleen, Riley, and Michelle
This is us at the Halls Crossing Marina
And I have to note that Mikey and I took practically none of these pictures. We took our camera, but so did everyone else! By the time the trip was over, between all the cameras that went to Lake Powell, we had over 3,300 photos!! So most of the pictures here are curtesy of Mikey's parents. (And here's a great place to plug Mikey's dad's photo blog. He's a great photographer who just takes pictures for fun. Take a look!)
Our favorite "sand place" in Moki Canyon
Crusin' around
Hiking to the ruins in Forgotten Canyon
Relaxing in Smith Fork Canyon
Mikey and I discovered a great system for massaging each other's feet!
A couple members of the "Dare Devil Club" who swam over to a scary crevice in Iceberg Canyon
Lunch on the boat
This cave in Iceberg Canyon is one of my favorite places in Lake Powell. It looks really small, but it's been a lot bigger in previous years because the waterlevel was lower. I wish we had a waterproof camera to take inside because it was gorgeous. It opens up after you swim under the thresh hold. The water was really clear and looked bright, bright green. It was awesome!
Mikey and I take this photo of us by this cave every year.
Annie's Canyon
Grandpa Russ getting his toes painted. What a good sport!
The culprits!
Because the price of gas is so high on the lake, instead of moving the houseboat into a canyon, we just left it on the buoy field. It was really nice to not have to worry too much about the boat during the storms, because we had storms!
Mikey jumping off the top of the houseboat!
The "Frog Hike" in Smith Fork Canyon
The kids had a blast looking for these tiny froggies as we hiked. Once the kids caught themselves a frog, they were very protective of that frog! (We adults were having heart attacks on behalf of the frogs. Poor little guys.)
Our destination of the hike--this beautiful cave
And that covers Lake Powell Part 1! Stay tuned for more!
