A Much Needed St. George Trip

This last weekend, Dave and I left Thursday for St. George. We had all day Friday to ourselves down there. We slept in, went shopping, took an intense ride up Snow Canyon on the bikes, and enjoyed eating at our number #1, favorite place, Parrothead Island Broiler! Oh man, it's heavenly!


Late Friday night, Brittney, Michael and his friend John joined us. Saturday we slept in, and then took advantage of the mid-60 degree sunshine. Britt and I went for a nice exploration run in the red rocked hills, we all played some tennis, and then went for a late afternoon hike in Snow Canyon State Park. That night we ate at a Mexican restaurant and enjoyed some thick, creamy Iceberg shakes. When Sunday afternoon came, it was hard to say good-bye. I really have never felt so much awe when thinking about a place to be. I love St. George and I'm not just saying that. AWE....

It's entertaining to watch Michael do these kinds of things like hikes and outdoor-sie things. We didn't really ever experience much of it growing up :)
