The Best Places In Southern Utah To Hook Up In Your Car!
If the car's a rockin'... don't come a knockin'! Am I right?!
Sometimes, you got a house full of kids! Or maybe you've got family visiting but you gotta keep that spark lit!
Well... Maybe your car is the only option you got!
Here are the BEST PLACES IN SOUTHERN UTAH TO HOOK UP IN YOUR CAR!
1. The SUPER OBVIOUS, OLD AIRPORT SPOT:
Great views! But... Not much protection, and protection is VERY IMPORTANT! Don't want a cop knocking on your window, right?! Every time I see a car up here I'm like "I know what ya'll are doing in there!"
2. The OTHER VERY OBVIOUS SPOT:
Another oldie-but-goodie... Great views, but Dixie Rock. However, ZERO PRIVACY! This time even worse, the parking spots are RIGHT NEXT TO YOU! But, when you gotta go, you gotta go!
3. The Covered Parking Garage!
This one is actually a FANTASTIC IDEA! It's a lot more private, plus... Keeping you out of the heat! This is the GO-TO spot, I say!
Plus... ONE HOUR LIMIT! What will we do with the other 57 minutes?! Am I right, fellas?
4. Top Level of the Parking Garage!
This one is tricky! It's the top level of the parking garage... which is definitely more private, but it's not covered! So it's going to get BLAZING HOT in there. Plus... You never know who is going to park in the spot next to you!
Can we just get a "Hook-Up Only" Parking lot?! Is that too much to ask?!
5. Residential Neighborhood!
This one has it's positives and it's negatives!
Positive: Usually in a residential neighborhood, NOBODY is going to be parking next to you and looking through your windows.
Negative: It's in front of someone's house, you weirdo!

Secretly AMAZING Pizza In Small Town, Utah!
Over Memorial Day weekend I found a treasure in the Pizza World! It's located in Marysvale, Utah in Piute County. A TON of people have never even heard of Marysvale, but the place is a diamond in the rough. More about Marysvale later, but for now... let's talk pizza!
This place is called Tomatoes Pizza Pie, A New York Original.
This place has some HONESTLY INCREDIBLE PIZZA, and they're usually lined out the doors! You can even order to go if you'd like.
THE PIZZAS WE TRIED:
Pepperoni.
Canadian Bacon & Pineapple.
Chicken, Bacon, Ranch.
If you're ever feeling a day trip, a weekend camping trip, or even an overnight stay... Head on out to Marysvale, Utah. It's only 2 hours 22 minutes from St. George, and about an hour and a half from Cedar City. It's right on I-89, 30 minutes south of Richfield.
You won't regret trying this pizza! It's HANDS DOWN, my favorite pizza in the state.
LOVE THIS: Southern Utah's FIRST & ONLY Inflatable Water Park!
There's a NEW and FUN thing going on at Quail Creek Reservoir and your kids are going to go BANANAS for it!
St. George Aqua Adventures has brought THIS to Quail and I'm about to go have the time of my life out there!
They're open 7 days a week from 9am-9pm! There's trampolines, slides, swings, jungle gyms, and even obstacle courses... ALL IN THE LAKE! This is a first for Southern Utah!
Their prices are TOTALLY reasonable too!
Ages 6-10: $12 for the 1st hour, and $6 for each additional hour.
Ages 11+ $20 for the 1st hour, and $10 for each additional hour.
People online are LOVING this! Here are some comments:
Kesia: "Yay! This looks so fun. Can't wait to take my kids."
Mikey: "Yes!! It's finally in the water!"
Betty: "This would be fun with the kids!
Appointments or reservations are NOT necessary! You can just show up and have fun!
There's even lifeguards there, but NEVER depend on lifeguards to babysit your kids. You should always be there with them.
I, for one, know that I'm going to be out there this summer on that swing, bouncing off those trampolines! This sounds like so much fun, I'm really happy we have this here in Southern Utah!
If you've been out there let us know on Facebook at Cat Country Utah what you thought about it! Was it awesome? Did you get any awesome pictures? Did your kids love it?
Southern Utah Tips & Tricks With DJ: Cheap Car Rentals!
At one point or another in your life, you've probably needed to rent a car, right? But it can be SO EXPENSIVE! What looks cheap, can EASILY turn expensive and hundreds of dollars a day for a car!
You know what's even worse? Flying into a city and THERE'S NO CARS LEFT TO RENT! What do you do?!
I GOT YOU COVERED!
UHAUL!
Now here me out... Nobody wants to drive a big storage truck around, but what if it was a fraction of the cost of a car rental? I'm talking... AT LEAST half the price! If you wanted a tiny little car for a week, that could run you $250, minimum! But renting a UHAUL truck would be a fraction of that!
UHAUL rents their trucks at $20 a day! TWENTY BUCKS! YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT!
A friend of mine, Brayden Phillips, used to work for Enterprise Rent-A-Car and he's even used this hack before in his own life. "Sometime's we run out of cars and people don't know what to do! I tell them to go rent a UHAUL for $20 a day!"
Phillips recalls a time where he passed that advice on to a man who flew into town for a softball tournament. "After the tournament was over, he told me what a great idea it was to rent the UHAUL. Him and his buddies piled in the back between games, and had a place to hang out!"
ALSO... You only have to be 18 years old to rent a UHAUL, instead of 25 for most car rental companies. That's BIG!
