August 3 - 5 North Salt Lake City, Utah
Sun Outdoors
SO many more fires burning in the state and states we just went through! The smoke from northern regions is being pushed south so the skies along our travels have been muted in color……
From Idaho to Utah there isn’t much….the occasional dust storm (which thank goodness we weren’t a part of), and many Deer Migration areas (haven’t seen a one yet).
No thanks! I think we’ll “pass” on this road – LOL!!
We arrived late in the day to set things up. It was a long drive in the blazing heat….wow it’s hot here!!!! Not our favorite of places we’ve stayed. They assign your site and ours just happened to be VERY tight with very little room to maneuver.
Only for 2 nights so we didn’t make a big deal about it with management.
Since we had been through this area several times in the past, we elected to forgo driving to the Bonneville Salt Flats and the Great Salt Lake. Instead, we decided to spend a bit of time in downtown Salt Lake City. It was a quick drive, and a quick visit because the heat was just too much. We came upon “South Temple” street where the metal Falcon frames the state Capital from afar. How cool is that?????
We got very few pictures of Temple Square as it was all under construction – not so pretty at the moment. Construction started in 2019 and expected to be completed in 2026. Looks like quite a bit of $$$$ is being sunk into the updates…..
Pretty cool art work along the streets…………….
