About Us
Rick and Kristy's deep connection with water began long before their annual vacations to Lake Powell. Despite coming from completely different backgrounds, Rick and Kristy discovered they shared an affinity for water-related activities. Whether testing her dad's water-skiing skills or attempting various water sports, their passion for aquatic adventures grew.
Now, they annually escape the world's chaos to live on a houseboat—surrounded by the beauty of God's creation.
For Kristy, she found she could offset her stress from her work environment by planning for moments near the water with Rick, friends, and family. For Rick, a thrill-seeker at heart, he considers Lake Powell his happy place.
In 2021, Rick faced Stage 4 Colon Cancer. After a challenging year of treatment, he emerged cancer-free in 2022, achieving his goal of barefoot skiing on Lake Powell during recovery.
Their shared love for watersports led Rick and Kristy to create this website, born from the desire to encourage others to disconnect from life's busyness and reconnect with nature. Through games, activities, and insights, they aim to guide individuals and families toward the mental and physical healing found in the simplicity of being by the water. Join them on an adventure to uncover the joy and peace that water can bring.
