"Spring is here, the cold has fled, the flowers bloom and raise their heads"

These beautiful pictures are now outdated, since our peaches are ripening, our roses have been fried in the sun, and the sun is baking this old city . . .
But we loved the flowers while they lasted!

Our favorite thing to do in springtime St. George (from about February to May) is to go on little family hikes. There are Indian Petrogliphs not 100 meters from where we live, and the kids love hiking the mountain to get there. Their favorite is to go on a "picnic hike," where we get to eat half-way through. Now that school is out and the heat is scathing, we'll have to wait until fall to pick up on our hikes again.
