Pictures Pictures From My Utah Trip.

PretzelSouls · 06-25-2009, 01:05 AM

Here are a few pictures from my trip to Utah. I flew out of the Long Beach Airport on Saturday, June 20th at 7:45a.m. and arrived in Salt Lake City, Utah. It was supposed to be 80 degrees, but it was cold and raining. I returned from Utah yesterday after a delayed flight - but I'm back.

This picture was taken while lost...we were trying to find the Pepperidge Farm's store.

Another picture from looking for the Pepperidge Farm store...

While looking for the Pepperidge Farm store, we somehow got lost and ended up in Idaho. Idaho...looks just like Utah...here's a store (one of the only things in town.)

Going through Idaho.

The handheld GPS told us to turn right, which ended up taking us on a road that ended up being a dead end. Lovely.

Part of the "town" in Idaho.

The 3 following pictures were taken on our way back to Utah...

We stopped at Casper's Ice Cream in Logan, UT. I remembered it from the last time I was in Utah so I stopped at a A&W and asked them where it was. The best directions they could give was "Go down the street to the blue house and make a left." Well...it worked. I had lime sherbet.

There was a bunch of cute signs outside of Casper's.

Later that night, I met up with my Uncle (who lives in Utah) and we went to the Prairie Schooner Restaurant. It was really neat and tasty too. You sit in covered wagons.

The Ogden River from the Rainbow Garden's gift shop...

While shopping at Rainbow Gardens...there was a cute cat that followed me through the store.

That concludes my pictures from Utah.

Cats in businesses is supposedly good luck. And judging from the size of that feline, that's a LOT of cat!

Thanks for sharing.

Peace,

That restaurant looks like fun. Thanks for the pics.

Wow, this is all where I grew up. I didn't even know the Prairie Schooner was still open. What other places did you end up going to?

Very cool.

I was surprised that it even existed...I guess it's a popular place if it's still open.

I went to the Timbermine Restaurant, Cracker Barrel, and Jason's Deli food wise. And I visited Dinosaur Park (

) and Rainbow Gardens shopping wise.

Did you grow up in Odgen?

But I really like that Dinosaur park, right there along the river. I went there a lot as a kid.

what pretty pictures!!! Beautiful scenery!

And what a cute cat! That is definately a well fed kitty!

I love the restaurant. Eating in covered wagons...how adorable!

The restaurant looks like a blast ... maybe Disney should take some notes and adopt it for their Celebration BBQ.

I miss the bowling alley that used to be up at Rainbow Gardens. My great-grandparents bowled there way back in the 60's. Plus they have a wonderful Christmas tree display every winter. Ah, the memories...

I live in SLC UT. It can be a little overwhelming sometimes to see how WIDE an area is between mountains.
Jeez, seeing those pictures of the Covered Wagon Restraunt was a little embarassing, but I'm glad "ya'll" had a good time.
Thanks for sharing!
