Apache Lake
Thursday we decided to take a trip to Apache Lake. We were greeted by a Diamondback Rattlesnake. Apache Lake is a 12 mile long, man-made reservoir created by Roosevelt Dam. We've never had this kind of trip before as we were always afraid to have young children around so much water. It was definitely worth the wait! Because we were there on a weekday, it was hardly crowded. Very serene with breathtaking views. It would be nice to visit again, however the treacherous road to get to this lake was terrifying (and that's being conservative). We are anxious to try out Roosevelt Lake and Glen Canyon and Lake Mead, now that we know how much we enjoy this type of trip.

oooooohhh! I am so jealous! Did you rent a boat? I think I could go for a week of that at a time, you know!
We rented a very rickety pontoon, honestly it's the first time we've ever done anything remotely close to this. Now I'm looking into houseboats on Lake Mead or Glen Canyon. Totally addicted!
