After eating our Hawaiian lunch we went to Snow Canyon State Park, which is not too far from St. George. There is a sand dune area that is like a giant sandbox. Unfortunately, it was too hot to be enjoyable. (It felt weird that just the day before we were hiking in snow!) D did manage to find a little bush that provided some shade so we played for a little bit.
The sand was so fine it felt like silk. Although the top layer was hot, just an inch below it was quite cool.
We drove around the rest of the park and stopped for some rock climbing.
To cool ourselves down we went to Nielsen's Frozen Custard in St. George.
We had an oreo concrete (like a DQ blizzard) and something with bumbleberry but I can't remember the name.
I *think* n liked it! ;)
Could not resist taking a picture of this sign.
For dinner we ate at Smashburger. I was happy because I hadn't been able to use a coupon the entire vacation until now. I had registered online and received a BOGO coupon!
The hamburger meat tasted fresh, rather than processed and the smashfries were sprinkled with rosemary, olive oil and garlic. I wonder if this chain will be in Southern California soon.
This concludes our Utah trip recap. On the way home, k got carsick (again) so I'm really going to make sure she takes Dramamine for all our long road trips from now on. Also, our camera stopped working less than a week after we returned. Thankfully, I was able to get all of our pictures off the camera before it died. It is in the "shop" now, and the repairs should be paid for by our credit card company. I am reluctant to borrow my parents' camera because last time I did that, I broke their camera too! So for now, our blogging will be taking a (hopefully) short hiatus.
