Snow





We decided this would be a good day to go to St. George and do some errands. When we left our house it was cloudy and around 65 degrees. The trip to St. George takes a little over half an hour. We decided to go on the Old Highway 91. It was the first time I have ever felt the effects of driving into a head wind. If we were on a plane, the pilot would have announced that everyone should buckle their seatbelts due to turbulance. Old 91 takes us over a mountain pass through the Shivwits Indian Reservation. As we climbed, we could see the peaks in front of us were dusted with snow. When we reached the highest elevation, there was snow coming down, Here are a few pics of the flurries, Neil standing in them, and probably what has been the coldest temps we have seen recorded in this area---35 degrees. There is a warmup expected tomorrow and we are expecting temperatures in the high 70s by the end of the week. We were making this trip to get garage door panel insulation so that our garage will not reach the triple digits it did in August!!
