Salt Lake City

From Ashland, OR to Salt Lake City, UT in 3 days.

 

Mount Shasta in California

Lake Shasta

We stopped at Donner Lake by Donner Pass.

Welcome To Nevada

We mostly just drove through Nevada

 

And then we went to Utah


The Bonneville Slat Flats Speedway

The salt looked like ice. It felt like we were in the Arctic, except that it was very warm.

There was water, which neither of us expected. We all splashed around in it.

Marla found a big "rock" of salt.

This truck drove through it from the other side.

It isn't very deep and they have cones in it to show where you should drive.

     

Temple Square - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

The Mormon Tabernacle

Marla loves fountains.

 

There were several water features throughout the square.

I think we stopped at every one of them.

Inside the Tabernacle.

 

During the day they have organ performances. Before the performance starts, they stand up at the front and rip paper and drop pins so that you can hear how good the acoustics are. The performance was incredible.

Lakeside RV Park

This RV park was very nice. It had a wonderful pool.

Time for arts and crafts.

Marla's rainbow cat.

Our campsite.

We're off to the pool.

Marla learned how to kick and paddle on her own here.

Once she figured it out, she didn't want to stop.

Her new raft.

She really enjoyed climbing on to it and then jumping off again.
