We attended the St. George Parade of Homes last weekend.  Once again, the Southern Utah Home Builder's Association pulled off a great event.  Even in this difficult housing market they pulled together 25 true parade homes (no builder models or spec homes from 2 years ago).  Every home was furnished.  It proves why this is one of the best parade's in Utah. 

Split Rock Homes, for the 4th year in a row, showcased my favorite home.  Located in Entrada, St. George's most prestigious community, Split Rock seems to deliver year after year.  What impressed me most this year was the way the Split Rock architects and designers blur the line between indoor and outdoor space.  They use a ton of glass, so the dramatic redrock cliffs are always in sight.  The exterior stone and flooring extend into the interior.  And they've integrated lava rock from the home sight into the stone walls.  Even the pool was built around 4 pillars of lava rock.  They certainly received my Best of Show vote.  Congratulations to the Split Rock team.

The photos in this post feature a few of my favorite images I captured while touring the homes.  The other great part of last weekend was the weather.  We've been attending this parade for 10 years and this was the best (warmest) weather we've ever had.  What a nice break from the winter up north.
