Utah Trip - George Wythe University

Our first stop was in Cedar City. We fell in-love with this little town. Southern Utah is really beautiful with its red rocks and open lands. Here in Cedar is George Wythe University. It is a small campus (although they have plans for a much larger campus in Monticello, Ut), but we loved the feeling inside the school. James said it reminded him of how it feels inside the temple. There are pictures everywhere of influential leaders from our Founding Fathers to Christ to Gandhi and Mother Teresa. Maps and books line the walls as well, and there is a cozy, yet studious feel. You just want to stay there and learn. This is the same look and feeling I would like to recreate in our home.



Cedar City has a lighthouse!


Plans for the Monticello Campus

The Library

This is just an end table...but, I had to take a picture



And here is George Wythe, himself. For those of you that don't know who he is, George Wythe was a lawyer, a judge, a professor, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and the mentor of Thomas Jefferson
