Powell.....

So, we decided to start heading back to get off the lake. A storm was approaching! Pretty soon, we were in the middle of a churning lake. Look how green this water looks!
We were getting pretty close to the marina when my Dad's boat starting having problems again. It just wouldn't go fast. So, our progress was slowed to almost a halt. Mike would drive ahead a little and then wait for them because it was hard to drive that slow.
The kids hunkered down. They get pretty nervous in storms. But, we gave them some treats (since it was dinnertime), covered them with towels and they seemed pretty content.


At one point, we lost my family for a minute. They pulled onto a beach because the boat was making loud knocking sounds. We doubled-back and found them and then headed back into the marina. We made it safe and sound and were able to get the boats off the lake without any problems. A quick dinner and then it was off to bed!
