The creation of the Glen Canyon Dam eight miles south of the Utah / Arizona boarder, backed up the waters of the Colorado and San Juan rivers and created Lake Powell. It is a spectacular lake with 1,960 miles of shoreline. It put some historic and religious sites under hundreds of feet of water and changed wildlife in the area permanently.
I went recently with friends to this spectacular place on a house boat and took a few pictures. These are the images of the trip that I liked best. I hope somebody enjoys them. I included some Google Earth geography lessons to help give the early October photos a place.

Rocktober
I am feeling "older" for the first time ever and I am badly out of shape. This is the craps. I am vacationing at Lake Powell (borrowed photo below) where I will find some think time. I want to use my time better every day for a month and see what I can accomplish.
Plus, my house has a leak in the roof. This sucks.
We are heading to Rocktober! On the plus side, DeseretNews.com, including me helping sports, had over 20 million page views in September. That is a big number. Horray!
