St. George Parade of Homes – El Mirador

This house was different from the rest. Though there were some similarities with Tierra Colata. It is built on a steep hillside in Stone cliff area. Built in strict clean lines looked more like a museum of modern art than a home till I entered it. But when I entered – the spaces were so light and welcoming, the colors so well matched, the materials so cozy – it was a pleasure to be there. Here it is:

If you enjoyed my story and want to see the Parade next year – you can plan your trip to St. George, Utah in the middle of February – that is when they hold the Parade. During Valentine’s Day and after it – for two weekends and a week in between. During the same trip you can visit Zion NP, Snow Canyon SP and ski in Brian Head. A lot of things to do here in winter. Nights are usually frosty or close or that, but days are usually sunny and sometimes reach 50’s, even 60’s. No snow. But if it happens to snow – then you a very lucky – you can get very beautiful pictures in Zion. Don’t get scared – snow never lies on the roads here, we enjoy some powder on the slopes of the mountains, that is it. While there are quite a few people browsing through the Parade Homes, the parks are very quiet and empty. You can have a lot of peace and solitude in this magnificent nature here!
