| 9th Ward Youth at Cedar Temple |
Youth Conference this year was a quick trip up to the Manti Pageant. We had breakfast at the Isom's house and a short devotional by Andy about standing out and being different (in a good way!).

We headed up to the temple including the Beehive's and Deacons and did baptism in Cedar City's newly opened temple. The young kids had to go home while the rest of the group headed up the road.
We stopped at Cove Fort for lunch and a tour. We learned lots of interesting little tidbits and then were on the road again.

| Cabin Holly and friends slept in at Manti |
We got up to Manti where we were staying in a really old home that was stocked with all kinds of memorabilia from my grandparents day. Old telephones, a coke room, old dolls, cracker jacks, wheaties...all kinds of interesting fun things. It was like a museum!

The kids spread out and "camped" out all over the house including in some "cabins" outside...I use that word lightly...they were old campers with wood structures built around them to make them seem super cool. There was also a "creepy" basement that bishop and Brother Isom stayed in.
We played 9 square outside for awhile and just hung out and had fun until dinner time.

We went to the town dinner -- turkey, potato, roll, brownie, green beans. The town serves 100s of dinners each night of the pageant.
Then we walked about 6 blocks to the lawn in front of the temple. The pageant doesn't start until about 9:30 p.m. so we just hung out and waited.

The pageant was impressive. Hundreds of actor/actresses. Big lights, Sound, a volcano, a choir...the whole things was just amazing and very well done. Very enjoyable.
Got up and headed home the next morning.
All the girls were in a big white rented van and the boys were in Bishop Clark's truck with all the gear.
