It's Pretty, Have to Give it That

Hello from Utah. Consider this your postcard - it's not that I am too cheap to buy stamps, but all I can find are pictures of Brigham Young. Wish I had something exciting to report, but the class I am taking up here is pretty intense and leaves me kind of wrung out. So far the height of my evenings here was last night when I used the motel's laundry room. Yep, that's me Mr. Excitement!

Did eat at a bizarre burger joint. The place promised "gourmet burgers," but here in Utah gourmet means Mayonnaise instead of ketchup. The strange part, and I expect their attempt at a theme of sorts, is that you have a phone at your table with which you phone your order in. The pointless part is that you are never more than about 50' from the kitchen, and you can hear the person taking your order from where you are sitting without the phone. Hang up the phone, wait, and when it rings again your order is done. Despite the rather useless ordering method, the hamburgers are pretty good.

Hope you all are doing ok, I promise to visit soon!!

I can only guess that, what with being Arizona material, that you've at least climbed up far enough to make a snowman?

The most awesome gourmet burger place I ever ate at was "Five Napkin Burger" in NYC. In addition to having absolutely huge and varied cheeseburgers, they actually had a veggy burger that was worth eating. Whooo-hoo!

Very pretty.

Be careful in the motel laundry. I hear people go in but never come out.
