Despite working on the Jimmy and doing laundry, Steph's birthday in Salt Lake City turned out pretty good. We decided to drive about 45 minutes up into the mountains to Park City for some entertainment and dinner. They had tons of stuff going on at the resort - mountain biking, putt putt, zip line, trampoline jump, an alpine roller coaster - but we opted for the alpine slide, where you sit on a little cart and ride down a track similar to a water slide or bobsled course. Despite being a bit of a wimp Steph made it down injury free and happy. There were tons of places to eat and shop in the town, and we found a nice little restaurant named Purple Sage that was pretty good. Steph had the butternut squash ravioli which, despite sounding pretty gross, was apparently really good.
This morning we visited the city's farmer's market and arts & crafts market, mainly just to look. It was a nice morning and there were loads of people there. After that, we packed up and headed down to Bryce Canyon National Park. Right now we're at another KOA (had good luck with the first) and about ready for bed. We did a quick tour through the park already and have a hike planned for tomorrow morning. Supposedly it is the "best 3 mile hike in the world", which is a bold claim. We'll see about that.
After our hike tomorrow we'll head down to the Grand Canyon to camp for the night. May not have internet access so we probably wont post again for a couple days. No new pictures yet. Stay tuned for a "housekeeping" post where we'll help some of the old-timers navigate the blog.
