Marc and I in St George







The first weekend the girls were gone to Florida Marc and I headed out Sunday after church and stayed in St George until Tuesday. We started out visiting with Ruth Ann and Thom in Cedar city. That was a perfect start to our get away. St George was great. I actually went Mountain biking with Marc. We went to a place called Goose Berry Mesa. It is west of Hurricane about 14 miles. It was very pretty and hot. After all of the rain we have had at home it was warm. Then ride out and back was about 10 miles. I had a pretty good blister on my thumb of my right hand but other than that I thought I did pretty good. It took Marc I bit to believe I could actually ride but after awhile he figured out that I would get off and walk if I didn't think I could do it. I think the hardest thing for me was that it was the first time I had ridden a bike with shocks. But I think I still did a pretty good job. And surprisingly I wasn't even sore the next day. One of our main objectives in going down other than to just get away was to try and go to Tuachan Theatre. Annie was playing on Monday night and that is not one I really want to see. So I passed. Usually, when we are in St George there is nothing playing. I was trying to be somewhat frugal with this trip so we passed. But we did spend some nice time at the pool and the hot tub. We were able to make a session at the St George Temple on Tuesday before we headed out of town.
