The next weekend , we headed to St. George for the Jenkins Family Reunion. It was miserably hot there, and so the only thing to do was swim. We also took a day trip with Matt and Nicole, to Zions. I was looking forward to going there again. The last time we went Boston was 6 months old. We took the hike down to the trail head of the Narrows. At one point the kids stopped in the river and had fun swimming. We finally made our way to the trail head where they swam some more. It was hot, and the adults found shade. I just love it there. It's so beautiful. One day, when the kids are teenagers, I would love to do the entire hike. When we got back from hiking, Matt and Nicole had a boot on their car. They said we weren't parked in a real spot. There wasn't a sign saying not to park there. We had it out with the rangers. We finally took it to the head ranger. He said he could see our point, and we had a good case. But our tickets were already written. When we got to our hotel later that day, the people at the desk said that a lot of tourists were getting tickets there. Oh well....now its a memory of Nicole and I calming the boys down and calling the park rangers "rent a cops!"
The rest of the reunion was swiming, and playing games, a talent show... It was just too hot there to do anything outside. I expect when I leave Arizona that no matter where I go I will get cooler temperatures! Haha. Hoping next time it's up by Provo. Cooler and easier for Great Grandma and Grandpa to just be able to stay at home!
