Karen and Rupert's visit

Fortunately, Karen and Rupert were able to stop over in Salt Lake City on their move from California to Maryland.  Our first item of sight seeing was hiking Rocky Mouth Falls in Sandy.








After the hike we had a pit stop in Scheels.  I told Karen if we were going to go to the bathroom, Scheels was more of a Utah cultural experience than a gas station.  I think they agreed with me in the end. :)  Welcome to the West! Guns, ammo, taxidermy, and all. (Ironically they drove east to get here.  But California isn't really the West with a capital W anymore.) I only wish we had taken a picture of the hideous pink camo t-shirt.  I can't remember what dreadful saying was on it.



After the hike, we took a driving tour of Salt Lake City.  We drove out to a nice lookout point over the valley near Ensign Peak and the Capitol.  Then we walked around temple square and did a little tour of the conference center.








We ended the day with a fitting feast at Bombay House. :)
