Salt Lake City

The Salt Lake City area surprised us for a number of reasons. It's much larger than we thought and the mountains are right above the city. Big ones too. Not far on the other side of the city is the great Salt Lake. The thing about the lake is that it is beautiful in a stark, lonely kind of way even though the city is right there.

We stayed at Hill Air Force Base just north of the city. Nice campground. Lots of F-15's and F-16's screaming by. We enjoyed being back on a jet base, but poor Pilot didn't appreciate it very much.

Here is an album of the Mormon Temple Square. It is lovely and the spring tulip gardens they had planted everywhere in the square made us speechless. We were able to attend an organ rehearsal in the Temple Tabernacle for a half hour. It should not be missed. We will be back to visit more of the Salt Lake area.

All you have to do to see the 17 pictures in the album is click on the picture of Alex above.  Once at the album, you can select "Slideshow".  Hope you enjoy them.
