Dinner aboard the sunset cruiser

Lake Powell,Utah

I included this nondescript picture to tell a story.We arrived in Lake Powell in the late afternoon,just before the sunset cruise was to leave.As we were leaving to carry on to the Grand Canyon the next day,we wanted to get on this cruise.I stood in line for tickets and finally got to the front of the line.I asked if there were any seats left for the cruise and the gal hummed and hawed for a bit,then said"Well ya I guess I can get you on....but your not getting any dinner". I said fine just get us on.So we sat on the outside for the whole cruise looking in watching all the people onboard enjoy a nice 4 course meal while we ate our sub sandwich we bought just prior to boarding.We felt like the poor peons....kinda funny.Anyway,as I was more interested in the scenery than the food anyway....the outside looking in was just fine with us....well...with me anyway....lol.

The Fox and Grapes story comes to mind. Perhaps it was you had the better meal, better view and better company.
