Nan and Mark Road Trip--Utah-Wyoming

For the first time in several years, we're operating without a looooooong list of appointments and tasks and we are enjoying it ALOT! On Monday we got back from our deputations at Portland First and Beaverton, hopped in the pickup and started toward Utah.

Monday night we stayed in a KOA cabin just outside of Brigham City. Charming, with a swing on the front porch, but "facilities" a hundred yards away! Tuesday morning after a low carb breakfast at Cracker Barrel, we drove on into Salt Lake to tour Temple Square (the temple is MUCH smaller than Nampa First), the Tabernacle and the fascinating geneological library (Mark saw the census information about his grandfather's family and Nancy about her grandmother's and grandfather's family on both sides.)

Tuesday afternoon, we drove through Park City then on into Wyoming. Miles and miles and miles of beautiful mountains and prairies. It's a fooler because it's flatness makes it look like it's near sea level, but much of it is at 6-7000 feet. Tuesday evening, relative luxury--free wireless internet and plumbing in the room! Tomorrow, we head through Cheyenne and on into Nebraska.
