"Steffy Luck" Temporarily Suspended

Any of you who know us well, know that the Steffys live with a cloud of bad luck hovering over their heads. If something bad is going to happen, it's going to happen to us. Keeping us humble, I guess. Anyway, here is one of the few times that we got lucky!

Over Memorial Day weekend, we went to Lake Powell with our friends, the Andys and the Ossies (okay, more code names--Andys are the Andersons--Geno, Meli, Roonie, Brando and Camperoonie, and Ossies are the Ostlers--Shtovey, BobaLou, Rach-A-Roonie, and TySone. There are more Ossies, but these are the ones that came on this trip). The place where we bought our boat, Wasatch Marine, hosts a big shin dig every year at this time called Boats and Bogeys. Well, on Friday, they had a two man scramble at the Lake Powell National Golf Course. Critty and I paired up, though Meli and I rode in the same cart--you know, girls just have more fun together, but since she and I usually don't take our golf seriously, we opted to not be partners. Anyway, somehow, I actually golfed well that day. I got the women's longest drive and the closest to the hole. Shock! With these little strokes of luck, and Critty's naturally good golfing, we managed to take 3rd place in the tournament! We couldn't believe it! Anyway, they presented us with a Visa card for $250 that Critty let me buy new clubs with to leave at our St. George house, a gift certificate for $1000 off our next boat (now that's good marketing!), and told us we could choose from an electric cooler or a wakeboard. Well, in my mind, I was thinking, "An electric cooler? Isn't that the same thing as a refrigerator?" Anyway, since we have two wakeboards, we decided on the cooler. What a great decision! The cooler turned out to be a Cruzin'Cooler which is an ice chest mounted on a three wheeled scooter. It is hysterical! It goes 15 MPH! We love it! So does everyone else! Check out the pictures! And come try it out! Too funny. For this time, the "Steffy Luck" was negated! Thanks Wasatch Marine!
