We have been wanting to put our stand-up jet ski in the water since we've got here, and we finally decided to do so the other day! One the side of the lake that we live on, there really isn't a good "family friendly" area to hang out. So, we drove to the other side of
Lake Pleasant~ Brent put the ski in on our side of the lake and I drove the kids to the other side. We did it this way because you have to pay to get in on the other side and they charge you depending on if you are a car/bus and if you are towing a watercraft. It was $4 cheaper just to have Brent meet up with the ski on the other side. It was really cool to drive to the other side. It was just pretty and really cool to see the
dam, i read up on it after we got home, and just the history was really cool!
Anyway~ The coolest thing about this lake is that you can drive your car pretty much anywhere! I mean, RIGHT up to the water! I
wish I had a few more pictures of this, it was really neat. There
isn't any sand, so it's not like a beach, just a shore line. It's all
rocky~ well, it's like there once used to be roads all around then the lake got deeper and washed some of the roads away~ I tried to googled it, but, nothing really turned up. Anyway, we had a great time, and it was awesome to have the car right there! No need to haul crap out to the 'beach' or anything! Just unloaded the car and jumped in the water! Shortly after we arrived, a few other cars showed up. Out gets a couple of adults, and then a couple of kids. Then another few adults, and then some more kids, and then out comes a couple more adults. It was a mom and dad, their three sons and 2 of their wife's and then 7 kids between two of the brothers. The kids ages were around 9, 7, 5, 3, 2, 1, and 6 months.
We ended up talking to them, and they were some really cool people. It
was great to meet a couple of ladies with children the same age as Sylas
and Turner! We
exchanged numbers, and I really hope to see them again! The 2 families with kids live up in the area of AZ where we would like to settle, so that was pretty cool~ I got to chit chat about the area and what areas in that town were good and which areas were not good. We got to ride the Jet-Ski as well! We haven't been on the ski in a couple of months because we had been preparing ourselves for the move so we really didn't have any time to go out on it. The water was way too perfect to ride; it was windy, but calm waters! It was great being back on it! The water is also fairly clear! I mean, you could see about 7-8 feet under water! We stayed out there on the water for about 4 hours or so. It was such a beautiful day! When we got back home, well, back to the RV, we ALL crashed for over 2 hours! We were woken up by Sylas asking us to make him a sandwich! This was definitely a spot we will go back to again! I will take more pictures next time and share them with you!
