On to Utah


After 7 days of skiing Colorado, we're on to Utah. Ken and I drove ~ 300 miles west on Rt 40 to Park City, Utah. It was a beautiful day with a pretty bleak white landscape the whole way. I found it much prettier in shades of white than it is in it's usual browns but Ken's comment was that it was a perfect place for our nation's Nuclear Waste. At one point where we saw more than a dozen carcasses in less than 5 miles, I thought maybe the Nuclear dumping had already started. Actually we assume that all the dead deer/elk were hit by cars. We were glad that none jumped in our way. You can see one of the pictures Ken took of the dozens of live ones we saw.

Tonight Ken is picking up his son, Ray, and Ray's girlfriend Anita who now join the adventure for the next 5 ski days. We start at Park City tomorrow and plan on travelling to Alta the next day (Wed I think) to spend another day with Cade and his wife Carol and some friends of theirs.

Where are the pictures of the wildlife you promised? The "alive" wildlife? Hope you enjoyed your day off from skiing and have fun skiing with Ray and Anita!
