Reesa and I spent the weekend in St. George, UT for the UAEA (Utah Art Education Association) Conference. Art teachers from all around the state come together to share their philosophies and practices. I went
last year and was excited to have Reesa join me this year. The grant that funds my job paid for me to not only attend the conference, but also room and board which made for a fun get away. Reesa studied (mainly at Barnes and Noble) while I was at the conference. Our evenings were spent hiking, eating at the top eateries recommended on Urbanspoon, and visiting local attractions.
The St. George Tabernacle is a common attraction. It was one of the first buildings constructed in the town, preceding most homes. The craftsmanship was remarkable.
In a restoration project, various writings were found on the wood from the ceiling.
Brigham Young's winter home is another common attraction. I took a tour last year and wanted Reesa to have the opportunity as well.
Nice photos. It is a nice time of year to be in the lovely red hills St. George... and even more lovely when one can take a fine companion along.
ReplyDeleteWho knew St. George could appear so great?! That looks like so much fun. And so pretty!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures. For as many times as I have driven through St. George I sure haven't seen it in such beautiful details.
