Northern Uthans swarm to St. George by the thousands in the winter.  When it is storming in the SLC area and Heber, it can be a delightful and balmy 60 degrees in the south.  The snowbirds flock to this area in their trailers, 5th wheels, motorhomes and autos for days filled with golf, tennis, and lounging by the pool. Many people in our congregation spend the winter in these climes. Every time we go down, I spend much of my day looking for a deal we can't resist, shopping, having spa treatments, and reading while Chuck plays golf.  We are enjoying our retirement.
