On our way home from Powell this year.

Awesome scenery!

Please, share your photos from your Lake Powell Vacations. If you have a problem posting the pictures for some reason, email them to me and I'll post them for you but you should be able to post them without any problems.

Middle of July

Here we are in the middle of July and the boat has been on the water since late May or early June. We've had several of you use the boat but surprisingly no one has reported back using the captains logs so we don't know how the boat has been running or how the lake conditions are this year... The Richins are currently using the boat and they called Tim Holden on about Monday to let him know that the generator was not working properly and that one fridge is difficult to get started and required a manual light. We have been advised not to run the generator for extended periods of time in the really hot summer heat. And if you are trying to cool the boat down with the air conditioner I'm sure you have found this to be a waste of time. It's not just our boat but many even the newer houseboats that can't compete with the July temperatures at Lake Powell.

Tim Holden is our President this year and he's doing a great job. It's not an easy task. Everyone seems to think that the President's job is to make sure their trip goes well and that if anything breaks on the boat during their trip that someone will urgently scurry to the lake to fix it so as not to interupt their vacation. I can assure you that if this were the job of the President ( AND IT MOST CERTAINLY IS NOT) then every member on the moki mansion would be required to take their fair share of turns as President. The President's job as we discussed at our last owners meeting at the conclusion on our 2010 year is to keep our boat solvent. If our owners don't step up and help him out, this is going to be an impossible job and the President for 2012 is going to be unemployed. Basically we will all be sitting with a boat and no where to park it. Of course this is just the opinion of one - this blog is open to all so please feel free to post your opinions. I think the more opinions we hear from the better.
