Winter weather in southwest Utah creates some challenges when it comes to exercise, but Dave and Jan enjoy the season. One exercise comes from the challenge of snow removal – and living on a corner lot provides more sidewalk space to clear when it snows – as it has done several times during the 2022/2023 winter season.

Jan enjoyed introducing one of our good neighbors to cross-country skiing on the golf course across the street from our houses.

While the ladies were skiing, the grandchildren were having fun sledding down the hill at the golf course with a boy from the neighborhood – joined eventually by the neighbor who had taken off the skis for some sledding fun on her own and with Dave and Jan’s granddaughter Erin.

Ryan took a break from sledding with the neighbor boy to climb to the top of the hill as “king on the mountain.”

On another day Dave and Jan enjoyed a hike along the beautiful mountains east of town along the East Bench trail.

Snow-covered mountains across the valley to the west of town invite further exploration in a warmer season, so there are lots of recreation opportunities in the Cedar City area for the enjoyment of residents all year long.

Dave and Jan are very grateful for the Lord’s gracious provision of a beautiful setting to enjoy during their retirement years!
