Back on the Road

Saturday - June 29, 2013

Two nights' rest with the Alzamoras was a welcome break from time in the car.  We celebrated a birthday, enjoyed some scrumptious meals, watched skillful knife throwing demos (yup, you read that correctly), and even played a game of Catan that was SO involved that we ran out of development cards.  Now we are in the final push, overnighting in Salt Lake City with the goal of eating dinner with Megan tomorrow in Davis.  Today's scorching, record-setting triple digit temperatures were somewhat bearable with the lack of humidity and when sticking to the shade.  We ended the day in downtown Salt Lake, roaming Temple Square, enjoying the architecture and gardens, seeking shade under the lovely tree canopy, and dining al fresco on Main Street with dogs at our feet (salads for humans and meatballs and chicken for hounds).  Final push across Nevada comes tomorrow :)
