Friday after work a group of us girls from my ward headed

down to Manti. I'm so not a small-town girl, but I have to 

admit, it was fun to be out in the country and enjoy some pretty scenery. 

We enjoyed the evening watching the Manti Pageant under

the stars, talking and laughing into the wee hours of the morning, 

a visit to the temple that next morning and a stop at the local

malt shop for lunch before heading home. Love little 24-hour road trips!
