Day 4 -  Historical Downtown - St. George, Utah

St. George was named in honor of a Mormon apostle named George A. Smith. After urging early settlers to eat raw, unpeeled potatoes to cure scurvy, he became known as the Potato Saint. George Smith was a first cousin of Brigham Young, who had winter home in St. George from 1873-1876. We were able to stop by and walk the grounds but the inside of museum was closed.
