Lake Powell- The TRUE Adventures of Todd, Beth and Adam

When you think about a vacation at Lake Powell, you imagine water, boats, rest and good food. There is no mention of break downs, possible drownings, animals robbing your food stash (A crow ate all our bread) or being sand blasted 24/7 from the wind.

We broke down at 4am and had to walk about a mile to get phone service for a tow truck. They towed us back to Moab, UT. We spent 7 hours fixing the truck.



We finally made it to the Lake and this is the first catch of the trip. IT'S SOO BIG!!!

The boys had planned on catching fish on this trip..... LOTS OF FISH. They special ordered 100lbs of bait into Denver Airport for this very trip. Well... we caught a total of 8 fish, but it wasn't for lack of trying.

This only lasted about 15 min, then the waves started to come in and I went from relaxation to fear that my boat would sink or pop.

The boys pushing a rock down the cliff. Watch out our boat is down there!!!

The Boys

This is how Adam fell in the hole. .... OK not really!! Adam thought it would be cool to slide into the hole and climb out. Check out his success in the video at the bottom of the page.

To finish out the crazy trip we treated ourselves with a 1/2 gal of Rocky Road ice-cream.

Almost gone!

This is a perfect example of how we ended the trip, on a sugar high, dirty (Sand everywhere) and extremely tired with memories that will last a life time. Thanks to the Adventures of Todd, Beth and Adam.
