We're back from our leisurely drive through the unsurpassed southern Utah scenery, and interesting little towns in between. Of course, we found unexpected restaurant delights.....you can be sure that your dad still has a nose for such things! We encountered interesting people who choose to live in these remote areas, and with that have what seems to be a much different life style that us "city slickers." A highlight for me was in Blanding when I felt like I was back at Davis High School, as we observed the "big" little town event of a football game.....complete with all the super pride/spirit the close knit community expressed. The poor opposing team was from Kanab, and I almost felt like we should cheer for them as they had driven four hours just to get to the game!
The enjoyable time away seemed to be good for your dad, and as you can see from the photo, he's feeling his oats again. We're grateful for the medical procedure which went so well for him, and count on good heart health ahead.
We're spending a few more days back in St. George. It's hot, but still relaxing here.
Wishing all those school kids a good start AND 2nd week of their new year. We love you all!
