#5 St. George, UT

After we were finished at the Monaco Service Center in Las Vegas, we drove to St. George, UT. It took us about 3 hours, so we arrived around 6:00 p.m. We stayed at a Western Horizons Campground outside of Harrisburg, just north of St. George. This is a membership campground and we did listen to the presentation for our four free nights. We didn't buy into it.

Charlie, my brother, had told us about a school that performs plays in outdoor theater at their school for performing arts. The name is Tuachan, and it is right in the red rocks outside of St. George.

We went to the indoor matinee of High School Musical. All the actors are school age youngsters and they were amazing. We went indoors because it was over 90 degrees this time of the year. We did look at the outdoor theater and it was great--set right amoung the red rocks.


This is the entrance to the school campus. Very impressive.

The auditorium and ticket booth are set right up against and into the red rocks. The outside theatre is right behind the steps.

St. George was a very interesting town. We stayed long enough to do a little grocery shopping and to get my nails done and go to church in the town of Hurricane (pronounced Hurrikin). Then we drove on to Zion National Park.
