ST. GEORGE TRIP

FUN IN ST. GEORGE with CHARLOTTE, MARSHA AND KAYE STARR

Fun with three kindred spirits...do we look happy, or what! Here you see us dining royally at a St. George fancy cook-in-front-of-you Japanese restuarant. Lovely, tasty, and, oh, so divine! With Zions National Park in the background, Marsha and Charlotte enjoy the cool breeze.
We enjoyed an organic sandwich picnic at the mouth of the park before entering.
All aboard! Marsha gets set to enjoy the trolly ride excusion.
Charlotte remembers this ride as a recent fun time for her whole family.
The girls, both 37 years old, grow younger and more beautiful each year.
I try reflecting some of Marsha's beauty on to myself. Oh dear, does it work?
Charlotte and I sit serenely amonst these monumental and inspiring surroundings.

After Zion's, we headed on over to Tuacahn for a chuck wagon dinner amongst the red cliffs.
The yellow-jackets were not invited, but came anyway and dove into our food. Nevertheless, we didn't let anything spoil our fun, and it seems as though we never ran out of things to talk about. What fun!
The pre-show. Both Marsha and Charlotte offer their own glamour shots before the stage. Aren't they both so beautiful?The guy on stage played the bad guy in "Les Miserables," which we saw. It was tremendous, and the talent here is incredible!
We departed for St. George on Monday, August 11th, and arrived home Wednesday, August 13th. The trip was way to short! One of the highlights was visiting Kolob on the way home. It's inspirational! Marsha and Charlotte~cousins and kindred spirits~pose at Kolob.

We couldn't get over the grandeur of the mountains.
Marsha Hardman Binch, favorite cousin and niece.
Marsha, please come back real soon, ok?
One last hug.
