I had no idea that Carl had never seen the Great Salt Lake. He's been to Utah at least once a year his whole life but they never went. I would have believed it if he told me he'd never been to Lagoon, but the Great Salt Lake? It's free! In the Nelson household, that is the benchmark for any appropriate vacation activity. We had to rectify this situation so we drove out there on Sunday night.
We got there just as the sun was setting and a storm was rolling in. We drove out to Antelope Island for these pictures. The kids and I got in a little bit.
Everyone told us to take bug spray. Thanks to the Skaggs' for hooking us up. It definitely helped!
We didn't get to stay very long and we weren't able to see any bison. We did see a herd of antelope on our way out, though. It was a great end to our quick Utah vacation.
We got up bright and early the next day for our trek back to Nebraska.

ReplyDelete:)Tell Carl that was also true in the Lawson household.
Just for the record, visiting the lake has been on our list many times, but we just never got down that far. We were too busy visiting all of Larry's million relatives. The list of things to see in UT is still quite long.
ReplyDeleteLove those photos! Next year....
