Okay I'll play. This is from our trip to St George, we went up for our friends wedding reception (Jarom and Heidi). Many marriages in my family have been preformed here. My Mom's parents were sealed here and I believe both of there parents as well. Yes you could argue cause its the closest to small little Escalante. Then finally my family was sealed here when I was very young. I still remember it to this day. Originally we were going to be married here but because of conflicts it didn't happen. I always look to the red rocks anytime we drive through St George and see it standing there in perfect contrast to its surroundings.
When the temple was completed, Young was not completely satisfied with the tower and dome; in his words, it was too "squatty." He suggested having it fixed, but the Saints were so excited to have the temple operational that Young did not push the suggestion. About a year after the dedication, on October 16, 1878, a large storm rolled through St. George and a lightning bolt struck the tower of the temple. Extensive damage made it necessary to reconstruct both the tower and dome. Young's feelings were well known and when a design was created, the tower was taller. This led the builders to claim that, even in death, Brigham Young got his way.
