In January, I purchased a hotel night in Kanab, Utah on Living Social.com. We've been so busy, we just made the deadline on the offer. It's been warm in recent weeks, but not this one. We left Vegas in the rain, hit snow just outside of Hurricane and had it snowed most of the day.
A pit stop in Fredonia, AZ was in order to pick up an axle for Scott from a guy. Cassy enjoyed rolling in the snow and trying to chase down a cat in a huge pine tree while Timm and the guy loaded up the axle in the truck.
We stayed in a cute, cozy, retro room with super comfy beds and fluffy down comforters at the Quail Park Lodge. They have bicycles for guest use...we didn't use them because of the snow and rain. But next time I'll surely give them a spin. Just a note if you stay there...parking is tight.
A nice thing...they are pet friendly! Cassy loved the beds too.
We wondered out and explored on Saturday a bit over to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary...
Coral Pink Sand Dunes was gorgeous!
Cassy ran around on the dunes a bit.
We took a few photos in the snow
Sunday we took the tour at Best Friends. Our tour guide was a gal I worked with at the country recreation dept about 30 years ago. She retired and moved up there about 6 years ago. Small world.
Timm really enjoyed the kitty section.
Sunday the snow was only in the upper areas and ecerything was gorgeous! We had a late breakfast at Mt. Carmel Junction then headed to homeward via Zion NP.
Apparently, eveyone else had the same idea and went to Zion on Sunday...it was really crowded. We explored around the Grafton ghost town area.
After that, we enjoyed a late lunch overlooking Sand Hollow Reservoir before making our way home. It was a great weekend, I look forward to the next getaway.
