Hello from Green River, UT<\/p>\n
Monday evening: July 16, 2012 (First travelogue of this trip).<\/p>\n
We are at the River Terrace Inn in Green River Utah (map)<\/a>. We are on our way to Salt Lake City for Pat’s Stampin’ Up! convention. We are driving the PT Cruiser on this trip. We drove about 330 miles today \u2013 mostly on I-70. It is a very scenic drive and enjoyable drive.<\/p>\n We left Denver about 9:00 AM and got here about 3:00 PM. We have stopped here many times in the past. Indeed, when I was a kid, my folks would stop in Green River when we drove to California. I guess it has become a long standing tradition. <\/p>\n Our room overlooks the Green River and we had dinner in the adjoining Tamarisk Restaurant this evening \u2013 again a ritual. They have good food and the dining room overlooks the river.<\/p>\n I often talk about the reason for this blog \u2013 to document our travels. We started the blog in January, 2008 (before the blog we documented our travels in emails to our family). I often go back to past posts to recall details as I plan our trips. This past few weeks, I had a bunch of fun reading old posts and recalling all of the fun times we have had in our travels. If you have followed our blog for any time, you will note that I generally include the location in the title. This makes finding selected posts easier. There is a search engine, but using the \u201cblog archive\u201d feature is generally sufficient to hone in on the blog I am looking for.<\/p>\n Tomorrow we will travel on US 6 through Price, UT to Provo and then north on I-15 north to Salt Lake. The drive is less than 200 miles. We will get a fairly early start so that we can check in early to avoid the rush when all the demonstrators arrive.<\/p>\n That is all for now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello from Green River, UT Monday evening: July 16, 2012 (First travelogue of this trip).
