LAST STOP - ST GEORGE'S

So headed south from Roy's residence, after a farewell breakfast with the tour group and wave goodbye to Kalani.  Through massively expanding suburbs and on via desert and back to canyon country and St. George's for a day of R&R before the final push to Las Vegas (2hrs) and the flight home.  Couple of swims (air temp was thirty degrees warmer than at Roy's), good meals out, excellent Best Western motel, bit of shopping and a morning walking the town historic trail.

Pioneer Town

Another outpost of the Mormon push across the continent to escape prejudice and persecution in the East, setting up in the mid eighteen hundreds to develop a sizable tourist town now.  At least three times the size from when we last visited 22 yes ago.  Nice old buildings, interesting Court House and Pioneer museum staffed by enthusiastic volunteers with their own Mormon family stories to tell.

Bison

These bison are part of the worldwide phenomena of painted animals, people, etc.  Found in Salt Lake City and here - we had similar sheep all around the Lake District last year.

None as good as the Witherslack sheep trail!!!

Sculpture Trail

Talking of trails, there was a great new sculpture Trail all around the old part of town.

They were renovating the tabernacle and it seemed like a pretty good addition to the sculpture Trail.
