I stopped by a VERY local St. George store the other day... Hurst Ace Hardware. If you're my mom, or have been here a long time, you call it Hurst Ben Franklin! My mom needed someone to take her to Hurst to ship something, and while she was working on that, I popped by their clothing section and was BAFFLED at what I found! They sell some AWESOME Southern Utah themed t-shirts. Some of these shirts have vintage items that we've almost forgotten about! Here they are!

Spring Break in St. George used to be LITERALLY CRAZY! St. George Boulevard was packed. People would drag back and forth and walk from end to end. Tons of people would get arrested. What a time to be alive!

SAND TOWN:

 Sand Town must be a nickname St. George has had in the years before I was born. I've never once referred to St. George as "Sand Town", but we do have the Sands Motel! Maybe that's where it got it's name!

DOG TOWN:

If you're unaware, Dog Town is Washington City. More specifically it's the area by Washington Elementary. I remember kids at school growing up that had "DOG TOWN PRIDE!"

Dick's Cafe is sadly gone, but was featured in Robert Redford's 1979 hit The Electric Horseman. The Flood Street Theater, or The Dollar Theater was a staple here in St. George. McKnight Sporting Goods was on St. George Boulevard and had that guy out in front of the store, and he was MASSIVE! Like 15 feet tall!

SNOW CANYON:

Wow! Utah's Next License Plates??

Utah's license plates are... OKAY. The Arches plate is AMAZING, but the others? Ehh...

attachment-utah plates all together
loading...

I decided to design the NEXT license plates for MY HOME STATE: Utah!

1. The Dixie Plate:

attachment-utah plate 2
loading...

There's not a chance this thing will fly, but I want it! I'd have it tomorrow! Fairly simple, but gives the St. George Pride Vibe with the sunset behind it. Showing clear skies that we get nearly everyday in St. George.

2. Modern Utah Jazz Plate:

loading...

No. Forget what I said on the Dixie Plate. I would have THIS ONE on my car tomorrow! The Jazz just did a whole new rebrand and they're keeping it simple. Bright yellow with the black. It pops. I love this plate!

3. The Beehive Plate:

The Beehive State, The Beehive Plate. An actual hive in the background with gooey honey running behind the numbers. This one would be the most UNIQUE plate in the world, and I'm kind of crazy about it!

4. The Elk Plate:

This ones for all the dudes out there. The Elk is the state animal of Utah, and I know there would be TONS of back-country folk that would sport this bad boy! Come on!

5. The Fry Sauce Plate:

Canva
loading...

Our most VALUABLE resource: Fry Sauce! It's a Utah staple, and it's GLORIOUS! In Fry Sauce We Trust!

6. The Califutah Plate.

attachment-utah plate 7
loading...

This one is made for all those Californian's moving to Utah and trying to turn Utah into California. It's essentially the California license plate with Utah instead of California... Just to make them a little more comfy here.

See! It's a dead ringer! They'd LOVE IT!

Who do we need to send these to? Let's have the MOST AWESOME plates in the nation! Come on, Utah!
