Provo, UT


Greetings from the Beehive State (I kid you not). Mare and I saw the symbols on the highway signs and thought to ourselves “that can’t be a beehive, can it?”. Um, yup, it can be and it is. Learn something new every day.

Day was all about driving, about 450 miles (OK fine 725km). Went well, other than a small chip in the windshield (traumatic for someone in particular, but we got it mended so we’re all good). I will say this, Utah folks drive FAST. I mean we were on the highway doing 65-70mph, limit was 65mph and getting passed like I was the old guy from Alberta with his turn signal on. But on the bright side we got to Provo quicker ;).

Not a lot of picture taking in an all-driving day, other than a few “welcome to Utah”s and the like (will post when we return). But for those that expect a picture, here’s a mountain in Provo:

And here’s what is right across the street from where we are staying:

… can you feel the love?

I do know they were having some kind of rally and I took a pic just to test the camera and before you could say Brigham Young a way-too-energetic teenager ran over and asked me not to take pictures. I don’t even think the pic had written to the card yet ;). No worries, hadn’t planned on keeping it anyway…

Anyhow, off to Bryce Canyon in the a.m., we’re really looking forward to seeing that.
