A little trip

There was a new doctor in St. George who needed training on the 23rd, so Jane and I decided to come down and spend a few days while I was at it. We got to spend Pioneer Day the Washington Utah way. The little parade started at 9am. My folks got to ride in the parade as the Grand Marshals for their ward. (each ward has one). We sat by Mike's Barber Shop where Mike was also the MC for the event. It was a lot of fun. We then went to the park where there were booths setup. We tried to sample everything. We had hot dogs, nachos, corn on the cob, water melon and a snow cone. The main attraction was the foot race by age. My favorite was a 3 year old girl who wanted none of it. She ran about 10 feet, threw herself to the ground and sobbed. That evening we did the home fireworks show. It was a fun day.

Saturday we had a BBQ at the Jensen's and then Jane and I went to Tuacahn to see Foot Loose the musical. It was a lot of fun. They always do such a great job. With this venue you always get things you would never see on a regular stage. They had a Chevelle, two tractors, a motor cycle, a horse and even goats. A few fireworks at the end as usual. It was really warm. We normally go to Tuacahn in the fall and I think that is better. Next year they will be doing Tarzan the Disney musical. I think we will have to catch that. There is just something about live theater that I love.

Thanks to our family for having us. We always enjoy our time with them and appreciate their hospitality.
