Remember Salida, CO from the news in early May. About 2 days before arriving in this quaint town, mid-western mailbox bomber had just left on his cruise westward where the fuzz ended up arresting him outside Reno, NV! Salida seems like a great place to come mid-summer for rafting and hiking...GORGEOUS!

We packed up and had lunch in Gunnison, CO on our way to Salt Lake City, UT, hoping to find a good camping spot for the night. Turns out that for the 2nd night in a row, the forecast for inclement weather, sent us to yet another budget motel. What would we do without the Cracker Barrel Restaurants all over the country? You can get yummy food like Chicken & Dumplings & Pot Roast as well as rent Books on Tape - a perfect combination. SLC seems like it would be a great place to live. With tons of skiing & outdoor recreation nearby, a nice downtown, a few cute neighborhoods, seems like a nice place to live. We'll add it to the list of possible places to move after our trip -along with Portland & some cities in Colorado.
