A week of this and that

Our week started out with going to a free concert in the park for FHE.  It was really fun just sitting in a shady spot and listening as Kerry Christensen, a world class yodeler, put on a nice show.  There were lots of people there.  He did lots of yodeling while playing his accordion, of course, but also played an alpine horn and a zither.  It was really cool hearing those neat instruments.


On Thursday evening we went to the art talk at the St. George Art Museum and listened to Amado Pena talk about his exhibit (top floor) which was quite interesting if a little long, and also enjoyed the Minerva Teichert and Rembrandt works exhibits up there too. The ground level exhibit of southwestern landscapes by Charles Thomas is really nice also.  Afterwards we went for a walk up on the Red Hill and saw a cute little arch and also went up the Narrow slot for a ways until we didn't want to scramble around to go further.


 Friday morning we took Wayne Stucki on the vortex hike up by Sand Cove so he would know where to go when taking the scouts on a hike up there.

It was 64 degrees and overcast - perfect hiking weather.  We ate our breakfasts at the top and met up with some people from the Biggest Loser place who came up just shortly after we got there.  Its been a fun week of this and that.
