The weekend's big highlight was the yoga class at Red Rock. Certified & Registered Yoga Instructor Melanie Paulk-Abderrahman from Cedar City, Utah was our instructor. The class of a dozen or so yogis met at the fee station. We Proceeded On to Sandstone Quarry where Melanie led us on a short hike toward Turtlehead Peak. Three ladies recognized me. Linda, from the class I took there Dec. 3rd; Nancy, my former dietician on my health plan before she took another job and Melanie. It was a beautiful day and a beautiful class as we stretched, bent and became one with Red Rock Canyon.
The secluded spot was very cold in the shade. Bare feet and hands were moments from frostbite when Melanie suggested we move into the sun. What a difference! It must have been 25 degrees warmer on the huge sunny rock. My only regret was that I didn't have time for a post-yoga run. I had to rush back to the real world for my earth job. One sad observation: Red Rock is getting so crowded that parking areas are overflowing. When the new Red Rock Casino opens things will get worse. One solution is to limit loop travel to authorized shuttle buses -- powered by propane...or better yet -- Sunshine!
