Everyone's got a Salt Lake City story...

...it seems, but I'm afraid we don't have much of a one. Exploring a city wasn't really on my agenda. My interest in geology far outstrips my interest in architecture, but, hell, it's an icon, so we did swing through the city to get a look at the Mormon Tabernacle.



We actually got a little closer, but had to flee with earnest young 'Sisters' perpetually offering half hour indoctrinat...err..."tours."

My biggest impressions were how quickly you pass out of SLC itself and into suburbs that seem to have more relaxed attitudes toward coffee shops and taverns. That, and the many, many payday loan, pawn and check cashing shops everywhere in the area. No surprise to me that Utah leads the nation in bankruptcy rates.
