Tehachapi to San Francisco

St George to Tehachapi, CA

We left St George this morning around 10am and headed to Vegas.  

After buying some new shoes for Timmer and me, we heading on toward Tehachapi. With about 20 miles to go until Bartow, I was informed that we had a couple batters that were going to explode. So we stopped on a desolate exit and took a potty break. 

We arrived in Tehachapi, checking into the hotel around 6pm. We then headed over to a nearby Mexican food place by the name of Las Palmas and stuffed ourselves. It was great food, but we had to watch a few rounds of cage fighting on the TV situated above the bar next to our table. I think it was making Megan sick to watch. 

Following dinner we took a stroll around the downtown area and took in some live music in the town square and watched the trains go by the station... Until we were told to get off the tracks. Really?

We then retired to the hotel to swim and watch television. 

Meet the talented potter in our family...

We were all privileged to hear Mom and Emily perform their piano duets with Dr. Dean in the St George Tabernacle this evening. They both did an amazing job!

Here are their performances...

 

Megan performs at the St George Opera House

Megan's dance company (Trio) held its annual recital at the Opera House. Megan performed  several dances, one of which was an amazing solo. Her company would not allow us to photograph or video the event so all we have is this one photo of her following the recital.

Baby Birds!!

The eggs in the nest in our front yard hatched!! Well, one of them at least. 

Tim has been watching them for a while. He thought it was pretty cool.
