Springhill Suites By Marriott Logan

On the road this morning again after losing an hour yesterday since we are now in Mountain time. Terry made a remark to the campground owner about some places being green and he said something about having plenty of water. After crossing the Snake River for the second time and know that it was also at Yellowstone I did a Google search…thank goodness for iphones. It seems that the Snake River Plain has the largest aquifier in the world and it ...

7 hours of "happy birthday to you...happy birthday to you...etc" Not bad. Did average 13.5 mpg thanks to my wind deflector.<br><br>The KOA here is nice but not too nice. Tons of full timers. The owner was well on her way sailing with Captain Morgan (3pm) but nice location with tons for the kids to keep busy.<br><br ...

About a year ago, my dear friend shared a secret with me. She wanted to go to France. No, it was more than "want", she felt that she "had" to go to France. Almost as if she was being drawn there. When she asked me what this meant? I told her it meant that "I" was supposed to go with her. We talked to our hubbies and they said... go for it. So we started saving our pennies to go.

This was our first stop on our way to our next store. We spotted this Hampton inn and decided to go luxury because we deserve it after bumming around the Northwest coast. The rooms here are great. Woke up the next day to a flat tire. Good thing there was a Sinclair full service gas station on the same block. They fixed it for $10. 

... 850 million pounds of ,molybdenum, and about 450,000 tons of material are removed daily. There is a visitor's center with lots of exhibits and a film to watch, and also there's a gift shop. Next stop was the Olympic Park, scene of the Winter Olympics of 2000, just outside of Park City, Utah. There I saw something I'd never seen before. Skiers in full garb plus life jackets going down ski jumps and into a swimming pool! Outrageous. There were tons of kids of all ages ...

... Anyway, we stopped at a delightful park called the Willard Bay State Park which is next to a fresh water inlet along the Salt Sea. It has a Pelican Preserve and we decided to take a couple of days to see them. It's very hot, humid, and the mosquitos are everywhere. Pat, Doug and I are heading out for a steak dinner.

We stayed at a KOA in Brigham City last night. It got incredibly windy and we found out that the tent cabana does not fair so well under windy conditions. We thought we were going to blow away, it was a little bit scary until we finally pulled the hatch down as far as ...

We have arrived....well, almost anyhow. Soooo....we stopped to buy beer in Idaho before we got into Utah, because someone told us we should. Um yeah. That was the creepiest beer-buying experience of my life. It was a teeny-tiny convenience store kinda' place, with almost nothing in it. We had about 5 beers to pick from, so we got a few (not the best beers ever, but they ...

... have you heard of Joseph Smith?", etc. Andy dipped out aft** this but the rest of us ploughed on - we took an organized tour of the Temple Square area. The tour was run by Swedish and *****ian sist**s. In addition to having more preaching we saw a lovely church and learnt a lot about Mormon history - but didn't get to see the Tabarnacle (closed for earthquake protection work) and as normal no-one gets into the temple itself. We had a ...

It was getting quite late, we were all getting zonked and murderous toward each other, and we were zooming along pitch black highways in the Utah wilds. We found ourselves in Logan where we stopped at a market for Jolt colas. Unfortunately they only lasted us half the way to Jackson Hole.
