Park City, Utah

We left California at 8:17 a.m., delayed slightly by Susan's inability to connect her seat belt, and drove, and drove, and drove until dark, ending up in Park City, Utah. Beginning part of the trip was a beautiful drive around the Lake Tahoe area. The rest of the trip was long and boring as we passed through "middle of nowhere" Nevada and the salt flats of Utah. Interstate 80 through Salt Lake City has lots of construction and all signs along the road that indicate gas, food and lodging have been removed and it's really hard to exit and find a hotel, so passing through to Park City, while not intentional, was a good call. We are at a lovely Best Western with luxurious beds located right next to a Tanger Outlet. There may be some retail therapy in the morning.

We stopped in several towns along the way, looking for quilt shops, but nothing was open due to the Labor Day holiday. Even the Dairy Queen we stopped at (Georgia, who does not have regular access to Dairy Queen said, "The first Dairy Queen we see, we're stoppin'.") had shut down half if its operation, limiting selections to ice cream only, no food!

Nancy phones us while we're driving and reports on Etsy sales, interesting convos with potential customers, and to chat.
