Salt Lake City

For Ben's birthday, I got us a hotel room in Salt Lake City, and we took advantage of my weekends off. On the way to Salt Lake, we stopped at Fossil Butte.

The gorgeous view from the top of Fossil Butte. Too bad we only saw fossils in the visitor center.

The Mormon Temple in downtown Salt Lake City.

I love the fall colors. Having seasons is amazing.

On a nice walk through the hills that are connected to the Arboretum. Can you spot Ben?

A small waterfall on the creek through the hills that are connected to the Arboretum. 

A man-made waterfall in the Arboretum. Look at those colors on the trees.

I love bright red leaves.

The Great Salt Lake. It is a little hazy so you can't quite see across the whole lake.

Ben and Jeremy playing on the shore.

Jeremy in the Great Salt Lake. And drinking some of it.

We also went to the Salt Flats, one of the flattest areas of the world, and where the speed tests are conducted. But pictures of flat land don't turn out so great, and I looked awkward in all of them.
