Cedar City

Every year, my mom's family makes the trek up to Cedar City, Utah for the Shakespearean Festival, a family golf tournament, and other activities. They've been doing it since the 80s, it's pretty hardcore. So this year Zach and I decided to join in on the action.

The festival puts on a mix of contemporary plays and Shakespearean plays. I signed us up for ONE contemporary play, The Secret Garden; despite the fact that most of the family goes to two or three plays during the three day weekend. My husband is not exactly a theater fan, so I thought I'd ease him in. Well The Secret Garden ended up being a straight-up two and a half hour musical. Here's how he looked afterwards:

Barely survived.

But we did other stuff so he was fine, including driving through Cameron, AZ on the way; which apparently is like a mecca for dirt bike riders; there's hills and crap I guess, I don't know.


The Don Hunsaker Memorial Golf Tournament was a big hit. Our team got second place! Despite our extreme disadvantage that was me being on the team:

Athleticism = me.

The whole golfing group, including my jaunty leg pose.


Winning team : one over par.


Losing team : eight over par. Whoops.


The FAT prairie dogs were my favorite part.


On Friday we went on a beautiful hike to Cedar Breaks. Totally amazing.


Really good tree climbers.


We ate at some really yummy places, large breadsticks were involved.


Thanks Shakespeare for the good times. And thanks Cedar City wind, you're annoying.
