Well, hey, I arrived at the hotel in Salt Lake City just in time to meet up with Karen, my sister. It'll be nice to have some company for the exciting stuff coming up in the next week.....(Yoikes, that was close; she just came up behing me wondering what pictures of her I'm posting....managed to distract her...). Managed to go out for dinner in an old converted church, Ristorante Della Fontana, Food yeah, great. But it was the bar afterwards that was a bit of a culture shock. They've got some strange laws about le drinkage. Max alcohol percentage: 3.2%.....I go up to this bar (400 South or so) and I ask what kind of beer they have. "Well", said the barguy, "we've got both kinds, Bud and Bud Light". He pours a couple o' beers and I could swear I've never seen a more transparent beer in me life. The stuff tasted like water. It was horrible. There was a gang of people in the bar, but there couldn't have been a single one on a buzz. They were super friendly, though. There were a whole lot of Aaron lookalikes too. (So this is where he fits in!)
Excuse, please, but, more fun, less sit at computer......till tomorrow....

Once I crossed into Utah (and saw a whole lotta cops pulling over a whole lotta innocent looking cars), it wasn't too far to The Great Salt Lake...
. Didn't get pulled over, though, despite driving a ridiculous looking van.
