When we left Salt Lake City this morning, we soon got out onto the Salt Flats. They are flat and salty. It looks like you could walk off the side of the road and fill up your salt shaker. 🙂 Continue reading

Five down; zero to go!
Saturday, October 26th:
Oh-oh! I must have forgotten to set the alarm last night. We’re an hour late getting up, but we still manage to hustle and make it to Activities before the 9:00 opening time. Continue reading
Four down; one to go!
We have just completed the fourth Trail of Terror weekend and yet it was the first where we actually worked on the trail. Continue reading
Three down; two to go
Yesterday everything was on target for working on the Trail of Terror. It drizzled a little bit in the morning, but by afternoon the weather was pretty good, and after sunset the moon and some stars were visible.

La pelicula es fin!
Our co-workers took today off so they could throw a baby shower for a family member, and at first I was thinking, “How could you leave us on our busiest day?” Actually, we didn’t have many people in today. This was the slowest Saturday I’ve seen here since last spring. Continue reading
