Spring Break

For spring break this year we went down to St. George for the week. We had a really great time because Jim, Cindy, Jenny and Randy all came too. The first day we were there it was just us so we decided to try and hike up to the top of Shinob Kibe. It's a little hike I used to do with my cousins when we visited Grandma's house that gives you a great view of St. George. It had been a while and I wasn't sure exactly where the trailhead starts (it's not marked) so we just walked down a dirt road for a little bit. Next time we will know right where to go. The next day Jim and Cindy arrived so we decided to hike to Lone Pine Arch. This was a hike we attempted our last visit but had trouble finding and didn't make it all the way to arch. We found it this time and it's a really neat place. Jenny and Randy got in Friday night so the next day we went for a hike at the Red Cliffs. I forgot Bodhi would have a hard time getting up parts of the trail (look at the photo album and you will see why) so we didn't go very far but we hiked back down and had lunch and took another small hike to some ancient Anazazi Indian ruins. It ended up working out perfect. The Blue Angels were in town for an air show so we took the scenic route home and had F-18 flying over our heads. The air show was on Saturday and Sunday but we had all sorts of planes flying over our heads all week long while they were practicing. It was pretty cool, we drove out to the airport to get a closer look because it beats paying $20 for the show. All in all it was a great week, it's so much fun spending time with family, I'm so glad Jenny and Randy drove all that way for such a short visit because we don't get to see them a whole lot.
