Cedar Breaks and Grand Staircase-Escalante
July 27-29, 2007, we sent to Cedar City to the Utah Shakespeare Festival and saw 4 plays. They were all great. It was a wonderful 2 days. Sunday we took a "detour" home through Cedar Breaks and then through the northern part of the Grand Staircase-Escalante area and into a small portion of Capitol Reef. What an amazing drive ! ! We were awestruck on nearly every turn in the road. Here are a few pictures of our trip.
