LP- AKA Lake Powell

This year Lake Powell was much smaller than usual, just my parents Bryce and I from my fam, with all the other families down members as well, so the houseboat was pretty empty.
Colby and I went up a slot canyon that I hadn't been up in years, and Colby never had been to one.  So although there had been flooding throughout the week, we braved the canyon.  Yes, we could have been caught in a flash flood, swept away, and died, but it sure was worth it!
Due to the flooding the night before, there was standing water.  It was scary as you couldn't see in it and it kept getting deeper and deeper, not to mention it was freezing!

Trying to keep my shirt and skirt from getting dirty
The week before Lake Powell, my whole family got sick.  Literally, parents, grandparents and all, minus Bryce and Erica because they were in Florida.  Well, Bryce too was hit in Lake Powell, probably because of his own fault, but poor boy was quarantined from the boat.

The rest of the week was spent surfing, skiing, and wake boarding.  So much fun!  

83 and at it again!
