Thanksgiving Guests arrive

My son Daniel, his wife Tina and all of their family will be here for Thanksgiving. Dan has rented a condo for his extended family to fit in which will help as our retirement home is small. While here we'll go to walk through the Tabernacle of the Old Testament exhibit here in town then feast together tomorrow.

Family visitors: l-r Lin, Dan, Gabby, Emilee, Tina and Heather

Autumn Leaves are Here!

Went for a short ride to nearby Gunlock and Veyo little towns just outside of St. George then a drive through colorful Snow Canyon. Loving the warm weather and prediction of rain much needed here.

Lots of golden leaves near Gunlock 
Easy to see where the river runs in this valley north of Gunlock

Love this picturesque little pond near Gunlock

Golden Cottonwood trees dominate the scenery

Snow Canyon has beautiful bedrock scenery

Interesting layers of color from sedimentary action

Love those St. George colors everywhere in Snow Canyon
