| This road goes FOREVER!! |
Today we went for a ride to Glen Canyon Dam. It was really cool, but it sure was a long way down to the water! Like Dad said, the first step is a Lu Lu. And further down the road we found Dinosaur tracks! Some of them were bigger than me! It was really very interesting and I got to go on a long walk looking at them.
Then Dad took us on another one of his "back road trips". He started out really good, but ended up on this dirt road that went on FOREVER! Luckily, there was a guy on the road and he told Dad to keep going and we would eventually come to the highway. When we got on the highway, we only had 60 plus miles to go to get back to camp...Dad's little drive only took us 6 or 7 hours....

Today Dad rented a boat and we went boating and fishing. The boating was fun, but the fishing was kinda boring. Mom said she had a big bite (I guess that's when the fish gets the bait and fisherman (or woman) gets nothing). Dad said he got a little nibble. Anyway, I didn't ever see any fish - except the anchovies they were using for bait.
Dad stopped the boat at one point to let me out so I could do my business, and when Mom tried to get out of the boat, she slipped and fell in the water! Dad didn't dare laugh, but I know he really wanted to. Mom said she was OK, but I think she hurt her shoulder a little bit. She had her phone in her pocket, but it seems to be OK - thank goodness!
There sure are some deep canyons and BIG rocks in the canyons. We only went through two canyons and that took us all day! Lake Powell is REALLY big! Dad said there are hundreds of house boats on the lake. We saw some that were numbered and the numbers went up to 500.
