We visited Brigham Young's winter home and Jacob Hamblin's home, which were so cute decorated like they would have for Christmas in those days. We also saw the St. George temple and tabernacle, a neat dinosaur museum that had the actual tracks of dinosaurs that lived in St. George along time ago, we saw the Tuacahn theater lights, Snow canyon, saw Santa twice, watched movies and shopped. It was just a fun, relaxing trip! The weather was a little cool but not as cold as it is here! Jon and I loved the scenery down there. It is so different although it is only 4 1/2 hours away. We loved the red rock cliffs and the desert feel. It was such a clean town filled with the nicest people and great places to shop.
We stayed in Jon's work's condo so it was a way affordable trip. If anyone ever wanted to come with us next time we go, you are welcome! His work also has a condo in Bear Lake. We only spent about 50 dollars on gas for the entire trip and that even includes driving around a lot in St. George.
It was so neat to hear the history of this place and how the pioneers were sent down by Brigham Young to grow cotton because with the Civil War, they wouldn't be able to afford it from other places.
Even though we had a great time, it was so nice to come back home!
