We had a great weekend recently. We went with some friends to Manti for the Manti Pageant and then up Ephraim Canyon for camping. It was great to have a little break from our regular routines.
I always love the drive into the small town of Manti. The first building that greets you is the gorgeous Manti Temple. It sits at the top of a small hill, majestically standing sentinel.
The whole weekend was memorable. I had never been to the pageant before so it was fun to see it and enjoy it with my family. Camping ended up being awesome. The night was cold but once we all got settled in, we slept really well. On the way home we stopped in Fairview, a little blip on the map, and did some shopping. There is a feeling of "small town charm" in those out-of-the-way shops that can't be duplicated.
I would feel especially remiss if I didn't mention the chocolate covered strawberry kabobs we discovered before the pageant began. (They will be referred to as the "Kabobs of Perfection" or the "Kabobs from Heaven" from now on.) They were made by a vendor on the main street in Manti, she drizzled each of the plump berries with white and milk chocolate. As if that wasn't tasty enough, she also had some kabobs with chocolate covered cheesecake bites (be still my heart) along with the whole strawberries. For only five dollars (and a trip to Manti) a "Kabob of Perfection" can be yours too.
I'd better stop talking about it now, there's drool all over my keyboard.
Oh. My. Goodness.
