Legacy of a great city

St. George was settled in 1861. Mormon leader Brigham Young sent a group of pioneers to the far reaching corner of the Territory of Utah to grow cotton and grapes and harvest silk.

Today the cotton fields are gone, the wineries are closed and the silk industry has given way to modern, more prosperous businesses.

St. George is a pleasant city which we have enjoyed for a couple of hours, hope we can return again!
