1st Stop- Salt Lake City

We left at 7:30 AM with a 588 mile drive to Utah.

Needless-to-say, it was easy to make great time on the gorgeous drive.

After checking in to our hotel, we headed to Downtown Salt Lake City. It was beautiful, illuminated and so clean. I have a new appreciation for Utah's Capital.
We decided to do a quick explore of Temple Square because we had never been there at night. The lighting made this 10-acre complex, owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,  even more spectacular. Located in the center of town, it contains the Temple, Tabernacle, Assembly Hall, several monuments, and two visitors' centers. We will explore more of it tomorrow.


This sign is not one you expect to see in the heart of town. As it turns out, there is a Peregrine falcon family nesting in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. This town continues to surprise us. I can't wait for what tomorrow holds.

Seeing the falcon at work would be cool.
