I have been to Utah many time, tho only as a tourist, soaking up the beauty of Zion and Bryce Natl Parks....but watching these Olymics, I did not realize how absolutely beautiful the mountains there are....For some reason or another, I just did not envision Utah as being so mountainous in some regions...it was a pleasant surprise for me...And I live up here in Western Wshington among the beauty of Mt. Rainier, and the Cascade range...
On my visits to Utah, I have found the people to be nothing but warm and friendly, the scenery beautiful, and the crime to be low...
No mattter where one lives, there are pluses and minuses...better to concentrate on the pluses, than crab about the minuses...
You must come and see the mountains! They are spectacular. And I'm glad NBC finally showed some of southern Utah on Sunday. The whole state has such different views and geography. And I too prefer to focus on the positives in life. I find that harping on the bad in life makes me cranky, and then I see nothing good. I'd rather be happy.
