While we're on the Utah subject, I'm heading to Salt Lake City tomorrow for
a week long conference. I'll have Saturday night and all of Sunday to wander
around and take pictures. Any suggestions? I'm thinking of renting a car for
a day trip on Sunday if I can find a nice site within day-trip distance.
Any thoughts would be welcome...
Mike V.
