field trippin'

last weekend i went on a field trip for my art business class. we drove to kanab for a conference on the business of art and we had a great time! i love the girls in my class and we had so much fun together. we got excused from our friday classes, so we left that morning and we stopped in zion national park on our way. it was so beautiful! i've driven through southern utah before but i haven't really spent any time there so it was really neat to take our time and stop on the way down. the red rocks are gorgeous. i want to go back and hike sometime. when we got to kanab we ate burgers and shakes and went back to our hotel to watch movies. there isn't much to see in kanab, so we just hung out together. our conference ended up being a bit of a letdown (mostly because it was geared more towards artists than towards others in the art world) but we still had a really good time. on the way home, we stopped at artist maynard dixon's house and studio. they were these really cool, beautifully decorated log cabins. i would've moved right in. the rest of the way home we ate pringles and beef jerky and made our professor listen to beyoncé and taylor swift and maybe even a little cheetah girls, so i'd say it was a good road trip!
