Bear Lake Adventure

We spent the day at Bear Lake and had quite the show to watch. We were eating lunch at the marina and we heard that a truck was submerged under water from trying to launch a boat into the water. The truck and the boat trailer were completely under water. After a few tow trucks and scuba divers they were able to get them both out of the water. It was definitely entertaining to watch. According to one of the workers, this is a common procedure each weekend. Maybe, there should be a better process to get a boat in the water???

The most ironic part of the story is that we know the person that put the truck in the water. We ran into each other as we were watching the whole process. He apparently left his friend's truck in neutral as they were trying to unhook the boat from the trailer and you know what happened next...and yes I said he put "his" friend's truck and trailer in the lake. Yikes!

There is a video of the truck being pulled out of the water at the end of this post. I love the cheering heard in the background.

This is the truck being pulled out of the water. Then they had to stop because it was on its side and the boat trailer was coming out first. It had completely turned around in the water.
Here is the other tow truck to turn the truck upright to get it out of the water. The scuba diver that hooked the tow on said the truck was still running under the water.

Then, after all that excitement we went swimming in the lake. Carter & Ashlynn were having so much run riding the waves. The best part is that you can walk really far out into the water and Ashlynn could still touch the bottom.



The view of the lake. It was so relaxing sitting on the beach and looking out at the water. We will definitely visit this place again before summer is over!
