We met Alexis in Cedar City today. They have quite the combination for adventure and fun. They have culture, national parks and many festivals. One of their most famous festivals is the Shakespeare Festival. A nickname for the town is "Festival City, USA."

Today I got to to the fall colors festival. They dropped lots of colored confetti on everyone. I had brought a vacuum. I turned it on and sucked up a lot of confetti. When I got back to the campsite I put the vacuum in reverse and turned it on. Confetti flew wildly across the campsite. It was EXCITING!
