I am always looking for some excuse
to head down south to see
my Dixie Kids.
On this last excursion, Bob and
Robyn took us to Zion and shared
their well kept secret swimming hole
on the east side of the park.
Here are the littles all set to make
the very vertical hike down to their
special place and outfitted in
their life jackets so there were no
MAJOR mishaps.
Tuck and Abe wasted no time at all
jumping from the rocks to the water below.
Those Lamoreaux kids are fearless
when it comes to water....little fish!
The crew from up north were not nearly
as daring. Part of the fear had to do with all
the little froggies that were in the water with us!
Eventually Jude and Poppy mustered
the nerve to jump in from the rocks above,
but there was no "peer pressure" that
was going to make Miss Minie enter the
water from the rocks or other wise!
Believe it or not....even Mike and I
eventually caved in and gave it a try.
It was incredibly refreshing in the 100 degree
weather! But still.....
After lots of water fun, we hiked
out (somehow I forgot that my knees
no longer really allow that kind of hiking...
so I paid for my folly!). Then we drove on
up the way and found a little picnic place.
Back in St. George we enjoyed some swimming
in the pool at the condo Brooke and Dustin were
staying in....without froggies!!
Minie was on board for that kind of swimming.
The Lamoreaux's are great hosts and lots of
fun. Can we come again soon....we still
haven't been to Pine Valley! :)
