Today was basically filled with unbelievable scenery.....again. The mountains surrounding Salt Lake City and Provo are amazing. However, the best part of today was seeing Trevor's dear friend from High School, Betsy Cannon Fox! It was so good to give her a hug and spend some time with her. We met her in Temple Square in Salt Lake City and we went and had lunch in a beautiful old hotel that the Mormons bought and use as reception rooms, meeting rooms, etc. The restaurant in on top of the building, 10 floors up. Beautiful views of the city.
Before heading up the Little Cottonwood Canyon, we had to go see the Great Salt Lake. It was beautiful with the mountains in the background!
After leaving Betsy, we got in the car and headed to Little Cottonwood Canyon on Betsy's suggestion. It was beautiful, even in sprinkles and clouds. We went all the way up to Snowbird Ski Resort....at the top of the mountain!
After that drive we headed to Provo to spend the night thinking we would go to Bryce Canyon National Park and Arches National Park. However, after getting settled for the night and doing some serious thinking and realizing we can't do it all, we have decided to forgo the drive south and safe it for another trip. We are going to do a scenic drive to Park City, spend a bit of time there and Olympic Park then head on out toward Nevada and California. This will allow us a few days of flexibility in playing along the way rather then just having to honk out drive, drive, drive. I think it is a wise decision and we are excited about it. So...CALIFORNIA HERE WE COME!!!!
