We visited various locations in southern Utah over the past two days. For school this year, Sam wants the children to experience/learn something in many of Utah's counties.
We began our trip at the old territorial capitol in Fillmore, Utah.
I asked the employee what "unlawful horseback riding" means. She said, among other things, it means riding while drunk, texting while riding (she was joking about that one), and for the women, not riding side-saddle.
Sam reading some of the 1800s rules for teachers and punishments for students.

We stopped at Nielson's Frozen Custard for a treat before heading back to our favorite little Holiday Inn Express in Cedar City, where we spent the night.
The following morning, Wednesday, October 25th, our first stop was the Frontier Homestead State Park in Cedar City.
Panning for gold, which Douglas quickly recognized as pyrite (fool's gold).

We finished our trip with a nice, short visit to Cove Fort.
