Party barge on the Jordanelle

The summer is nearing its end and the local kids just started back to school.  Rather than giving in, we joined a group of Wednesday Park City Mountain Hosts for a party barge rental on the local reservoir.  A big thanks to Alison for pulling this together.


Julie enjoying the beautiful day.



Loris Benson and Alison Pierce (our trip coordinator).  Now that we aren't near the coast, it is too easy to forget how peaceful it can be to just amble around in a boat.


Jim and JR just hanging out on the stern.


Steve Pierce was one of our captains.  He looks very official.


We all went for a swim.  It was chilly, but not cold. Cindy's little float noodles were popular.


We really got lucky with the weather.  There were little thunderstorms occurring all around us, but we only got about 2 minutes of rain and four hours of wonderful.


After we returned the boat to the marina, we gathered in the campground for a big bonfire and making smores. Some of the ladies were camping for the night, but Julie and I headed home for the comfort of our beds.

Wait. Is the captain drinking a beer? In Utah? That's illegal, Catfish.
