Cedar City, UT

Darcy and I went around Cedar City taking pictures, we made a mistake, we didn't recharge the camera battery, so we will need to do it again, but we stopped at the Veterans Memorial Park in Cedar City. The park is located at 200 East 200 North in Cedar City.

This is one shot of the World War II Memorial:

The Korean War Memorial:

Vietnam:

The Current Iraq/Afganistan Wars:

Our heartfelt thanks to each of you! We know that all gave some and honor those that gave all!

Driving around Cedar City, we noticed a couple of sights that we just wanted to share with everyone. The first is taken from the Coal Creek Walking Trail. This is a walking trail that goes along Highway 14 into the mouth of Cedar Canyon. The photo is taken from behind the Vetrans Memorial park looking up Coal Creek towards the mouth of Cedar Canyon:

The next photo is a photo of a Cedar of Lebanon Tree, planted in the Veterans Memorial Park:

I hope that you enjoy them!

I messed up and missed Thankful Thursday, so I thought that I would share today with everyone why I love living in Southern Utah:

The above photo is taken not in the Cedar City area, rather it is in Capitol Reef National Park.

The above photo is also taken just west of Capitol Reef National park, also west of Torrey, Utah North of Hwy 24

The above photo was also taken in Capitol Reef National Park

The above is my new car! LOL Photo taken by my Sister in Cainesville, Utah East of Capitol Reef National park

Cozy Ranch House east of Capitol Reef National Park! Just kidding, this was built by my Great-Grandfather, Elijah C Behunin. It is also in Cainesville, Utah East of Capitol Reef National Park.

The above photo is closer to home, it is of Cedar Breaks National Monument, East of Cedar City, Utah.

These are just a very few of the reasons that I love living in Scenic Southern Utah. We love living in Cedar City, Utah, it is the gateway to all of the National Parks and breathtaking beauty that is Southern Utah.

Next week is the UAR convention at the Zermot Resort in beautiful Midway, Utah. The real events for the rank and file Realtors is next Tuesday and Wednesday. There promises to be some great classes for us to learn. Those unfamiliar with Midway, it is between Park City and Heber City, it is nestled up to the mountains and is absolutely gorgeous!

There is a lot information and there is still time to register, although you will have missed out on the early registration discount. It runs October 5-8 with classes the 6-7th and other meetings on the 5th then again on the 8th. Darcy and I are both looking forward to going this year. Darcy went last year as she is on the Iron County Board of Directors. This will be my first time at the convention so I am really excited! I hope to see some of my Utah 'Rain friends there!

One thing that you can always say about the weather, you have a 50% chance of being wrong! Our first major storm of the Autumn Season didn't hit us with the snow that I thought that it would. I guess that if I were better at forecasting the weather, I would do that for a living! We had a beautiful, but chilly day. The skies were bright blue and the winds had a crispness to them that we haven't felt in months, but the snow has stayed away for now anyway.

Now that I have said that, I will probably awaken to snow on the ground in the morning! I will say this, it hit Northern Utah pretty hard, but other than chilly winds, seems to have missed us. That is alright, the air is cool, clear and crisp and it is a beautiful time to visit Scenic Southern Utah! Come on up, you may just end up staying!
