Skyline Drive, St George Utah
About 2 miles from our house on Skyline Drive are these pull off parks with trails. We stopped this morning on the way home because we always see people up on the tops of these rocks climbing. It's just amazing the view.
The rock formations are just amazing, and to be this close to home makes it even more so. You are literally just steps from town but feel like you are centuries away. It's a real prehistoric feeling once you walk within the rocks.
Here's one shot looking down into St George at the Temple. So pretty on a day like today. Blue sky and about the perfect temp.
Here's another view, looking over another stop to the park and a better view of the Washington City and Zion in the far background. Such a beautiful spot. Click on the photos to get a clearer view.
When you enlarge the photo and pan to the far bottom right you'll see the temple in the photo above.

My new Cactus. After looking at the beautiful cactus down the street we were off to the nursery to buy our own. It's still waiting to be planted until the heat of the day is over but I think it's going to make a lovely addition to our front yard.

Ok your eyes do not deceive you! These chicks have actually been colored! If you click on the photos to enlarge you'll really get a better view. They said that as soon as the egg cracks food coloring is put in and the result are these little tuffs of down in assorted colors.
Once the baby down feathers drop out they'll look just like their cousins once again. I had never seen this done before, and since Easter is tomorrow it looked like a moving Easter basket!
It was a kick to watch the little piggies. A baby was given to someone to hold and started squealing up a storm. That woke all the little guys up and they headed to momma for lunch
There's always one, this little guy kept looking around like 'where did everyone go?
Finally he found his spot as well, he's the one with his little face upturned.
