Because it was a three-day weekend, and because we needed to make some necessary furniture decisions on the condo we are purchasing in St. George, Utah, we spent this past weekend in St. George.
St. George is typically about 15 – 20 degrees warmer than where we live. The first day we were there the temps were in the 50’s and gradually warmed up from there. In other words, it was a nice break from winter for us, and for my brother and his family who were also visiting St. George. Even though the main focus of the weekend was to decide on furniture, we also made time to relax. We went to dinner with my brother and his family, visited a park, went to church, and visited Snow canyon.
Here are a few images from our weekend away from winter…
And some scenery…
On our last day there Hoob and Yawlin went swimming in the outdoor pool at the clubhouse…in January! Yes, it was hard to come back to winter…
…it was a break that we don’t take for granted.

If I got to look at that every day, I’d move also. Great shots, especially of Yawlin clearing the water. Just lovely . . .

I love all the photos from your outings. I think we’ll need to take the boys on a few outings out here. I’ve been dying to go to the redwoods.
