Pie in Veyo with Kelly and Gary

We enjoyed having Kelly, our oldest and her husband Gary in St. George over 2019’s MLK weekend.  The sky was clear and blue so we drove up to Mountain Meadow because – after almost her entire youth spent in St. George – she had never been there. Afterwards, to lighten the mood, we ended up having lunch at the Veyo Pie shop, including sharing a slice of coconut cream, rhubarb/raspberry and volcano pie … all enjoyed with four spoons.  Yummy delicious!!!!  

It was fun to have them here!  She works really hard and deserves a chance to just relax and have fun, although I know, at the heart of their decision to visit St. George for a couple of days, was to check on her father, who had just had shoulder surgery.  So nice to know our kids care about their parents.

They went home early because the weather was threatening to turn nasty on Monday.  It was a good decision, because not only did the weather turn nasty but a power line came down and closed the freeway – going both directions, as well.  Selwin and Brianna came over later in the day for Phase Ten. Brianna reminded me, “you haven’t done any mystery trips lately.”  She’s right, so guess I’d better start planning things to do when we have nice weather ... and company.
