 Gasoline Engines And Alcohol Don't Mix Well ( Lake Powell, 1981) High School Classmates Rod And Jeff moved to Page Az. and Lake Powell shortly after high school. Jeff bought this flat bottom boat with a Ford 427 motor and show here " Testing It Out " a bit. Soon , he had my other buddy Rod up sking behind it at,,,say 80 mph!!! Amazingly, both this friends are still alive today and this bad scan of an even worse, blurry Kodak 110 photo is all I have and a few memories of that wild 1980 vacation. ( NOte": LOne rock is in the background near Wahweap Marina. In the early daysm there was little law inforcement down at Lone Rock and someone would need to be almost dead before anyone would ever show up. Today , is a different story and tickets are handed out like " Gum Sticks " for any infraction of any set rules.. New Days verse Old ??????? Chalk up one for the " OLd Days ",,,, |
