About the time that Molly Mertlich was born (2 years ago?) Grandpa Fred was visiting and during a trip into St George, he told me a story about him as a kid, each time they would drive into Southern Utah, his parents would tease him about some mountain formation named "Molly's Nipple" he said he was 12 and that would embarrass him so they would continue to do that. I'd never seen the formation and Grandpa Fred didn't know exactly where it was. So about a year later, as I was reading one of my LDS fictions, it told about Orin Porter Rockwell having a friend in a Lady named Molly something who ran a house of ill repute, and he named a number of mountain formations after her, as I read that in the book, I knew that part must not be fiction, and one of them had to be "Molly's Nipple". Then a few months later, as Dan and I were looking at houses we went into Hurricane looking at this house at the foot of a mountain, it was a beautiful setting, I looked up and couldn't believe my eyes, I was looking at what had to be that formation. Every time I see it now, I have to laugh, and from each side of the mountain, the formation doesn't change.

I have a couple "budding" photographers Dylan took these shots and the ones of the basket ball shooting, Nolan helped with those, I'm so glad that I can just delete them when were done, so go for it guys.






On a trip with Dan while he was out for work, we stopped by Bryce Canyon, I'd never been there, WOW and pictures don't do it justice.

I will have to share the mountain story with little Molly, maybe when she is 12.
