The last time we drove this stretch of I-80 west out of Salt Lake City, Utah was in September 1973. Today as we left the city we noted the Saltair III pavilion on our right. We visited it in 2014. Also we noticed some mining activity including a Morton Salt facility....
As we were navigating the streets of Salt Lake City, Utah in search of a gas station, we received a phone call from Sarah and Rick asking us to join them for dinner at Desert Edge Brewery at Trolley Square. We found a relatively quiet table in a back corner near the...
Late afternoon we stopped by Salt Lake City, Utah's Liberty Park to check out the Friday evening Farmers Market. The colorful fruits and vegetables were tempting but we fell for some sweet and savory pastries for tomorrow and some amazing salted caramel for immediate...

The scenery on the trip from Rock Springs, Wyoming to Salt Lake City, Utah is nothing short of spectacular! We did consider doing a side trip to Fort Bridger and in fact got off the interstate and drove through Lyman toward the fort not knowing that Fort Bridger is...
Wow! This has been on Our List for ever so long. We're at Dinosaur National Monument in Utah! It's another of those places where we must come back! This time we arrived just after two busloads of Roads Scholars so it was crazy busy. We took the tram up to the quarry...
