LHC Paddle Boarding (Tuesday, August 16th, 2016)

Monday's are calm days in Lake Havasu City in the summer time. Everyone has gone back to work, and the lake is tranquil and serene.  So we all decided that it would be a great day to do some paddle boarding.  

We drove over to Steve's brother's house and picked up the paddle boards, and then headed to a quiet little state park called Cattail Cove, which is about half way down the lake on the Arizona side.  

As we were pulling into the park, there was a group of four desert big horn sheep standing in the shade of a tree so we stopped to take a closer look.  There was a large male and three females.

We told some of the other people in the park about them, so they wouldn't miss out, and then headed down to the lake.  We all took turns on the paddle boards, just enjoying the day.

Then it was time for some paddle board yoga.  Not as easy as you might think!

For lunch we brought some leftovers.  One of the things we love about being in the desert is that you can lay your lunch out about 30 minutes before you want to eat it and it will be piping hot when your ready.  And today didn't disappoint us!  Leftover fajitas! Yum!

Then is was Steve's and my turn on the paddle boards.

As we ended our day at Cattail Cove, we looked up from the parking lot and noticed the desert big horns laying in the shade of the rocks.  

 We ended our day at Shogun restaurant, which has a great happy hour.  32 ounce beers for $2.75 and 1/2 price appetizers.  We each had a beer and shared some spicy garlic edamame, which was really good.  Then we went into the hibachi grill to watch them cook up some yummy salmon and chicken for us.  This was a great way to end a perfect trip with two amazing people.

Our drive home through Moab. Utah would not have been complete without a visit to our favorite restaurant, Quesadilla Mobilla!  A discovery we made when visiting Moab with our oldest daughter and her husband last summer.
