Page, AZ (relatively low tourist rates)

This was kind of a chill week for us. We ended up having some good comp inventory and spending some time together - doing chores, eating cheesecake, and watching Ted Lasso. I doubt we'll finish before our 1 week free trial of Apple TV, but it's worth a shot, and despite the language, has a lot of good messages. 

'Za.

Workwise, the week was rough. At least for me. This is officially the longest I've worked anywhere and I'm chafing a little bit, I think. My patients are all just difficult to schedule right now, with no end in sight for some of them. And corporate has a productivity standard that it's hard to meet if I have to drive to Williams or Munds Park a few times a week. It's just been a little frustrating lately. 

Swimming hole. 

We decided we needed a trip to Lake Powell and some family time last minute, so we spent the weekend up there. Eve came yard saling with us and we found a winch and a mid-size pot. Rog had fun going through all the fishing gear in the house and speculating about upcoming camping and hunting trips. 

The strategy.

Later in the day, we went to the lake and found our own semi-private swimming hole. We spent some time dinking around there before we took a stroll down the boardwalk and found some pizza. When it was dark enough, we tried fishing off the docks. Despite the worker's confirmation of our strategy, the fish were fiendishly good at stealing the bait without getting hooked. We brought 1 all the way up and probably lost 20 a piece. 

The fish. 

Sunday was a sleepy day with church and good food and naps. It was nice to get away and spend some time with people we enjoy. No games were played and we all survived.
