The Lady from Michigan

It was just a chance meeting as we were driving through a neighborhood.  She was out working in her yard, and RAH stopped to ask her about a plant.

She is a snow bird...

from MICHIGAN.

So, how did she end up in Southern Utah?

Her daughter moved to Salt Lake City, and in a visit to their daughter, they flew to Las Vegas and drove through Southern Utah.  They immediately loved the red rock, the desert, and they bought a home near Snow Canyon amidst the red, red rock.  It's in a stunning section of town.

Now the thing that was so interesting to me about this story, is that they already had a winter home in Florida; right by the beach in a beautiful setting.

"Why would you give that up?" I asked.

"Way too crowded, humid, huge crowds everywhere you went.  We just LOVE it here."

Ah, I'm with you there, lady from Michigan.
