Travel day after all

On the road early in the morning and through the dreaded Salt Lake City before noon. Traffic wasn't too bad, although just south of the downtown it was fairly busy for about 10 miles. It takes about an hour to get through this place, at 65 mph. The construction we have endured in the north has made for pretty good going. Unfortunately the south 20 miles or so is a mess now. These guys must go to the same construction forever classes that Edmonton's guys attend. The worst part is the narrow lanes, they go to about 8 ft wide where the road is torn up. When your rig is 7 1/2 ft wide, that is a challenge when traffic gets heavy. Weather started out nice & just kept getting better all day long. Lots of rv's on the road today, I suspect lots were weekenders going home. Made it to St George, Utah. Went back to one of the rv parks we frequently stay at, Temple View. Yes you can see the mormon temple from here. Its a really nice park, very well kept up. They have all the amenities: wifi, cable tv, swimming pool, etc. This is the one we usually leave the motorhome at, in their storage lot. Will likely stay here a week and make day trips to Zion park & Bryce canyon. Probably even the north rim of the grand canyon. Hey that grand should have an 'e' on the end. LOL. Anyway we have always just been passing through here & the plan is to do the tourist thing in the area. For supper we went to Cracker Barrel, one of our fav's and had the special. It was really yummy tonight. The food there is almost like home-cooked. They serve all the unique american stuff you just hear about at home; stuff like: corn bread biscuits, grits and some of the best chicken you will eat. There is a veranda on the front & they had the mist spraying today. It's a fine water spray that really cools the area off & cools you off when you walk through it. Not much need for that kind of thing in GP, but down here they are more common than you would think. Total mileage on this trip 2,760 km's / 1,720 miles. Bugs killed must exceed either of those numbers - LOL.. One advantage of the wifi - we just found out that Craig proposed to Anna, I assume she accepted as she was just beaming in the pictures. What a happy day, our Anna is a betrothed woman. Congratulations to Anna & Craig... That calls for a dram...
