Living in St. George is hott.

But, seriously.  St. George is so hot.  This weekend we had so much fun!  But, we had to wake up at 6:00 a.m. in order to beat the heat and make sure our friend could get back to work.  We went to Snow Canyon, just outside of St. George, by Tuacahn.

When we started climbing, I was kind of nervous.  Our friend did the lead climb, and it was kind of oddly set up, not his fault, just the wrath of the mountain.  After I finished my first climb I was pumped.  It was just a tease!  It made me feel so good.  We went with two beginners and it was fun to have them try it out.  They loved it.  So awesome.


But, once we had all finished climbing I decided I would go for it and climb the face.  Austin was so supportive and helpful.  There really wasn't anywhere for me to grip on, so I don't know how I did it...  So grateful I managed to stick to the wall like Spider man!

Today we went to church, and we made some more new friends, and then we were invited to a surprise birthday party.  We are really excited for our new little adventure down here, and are starting to feel more and more comfortable here!  It's like... we live here!  We aren't just visiting anymore.

Oh.  If you were curious.  It is like... 106 degrees today.
