Wow- there aren't many places you haven't been. A houseboat on Lake Powell is on our wish list of family vacations too! That's a great list. We need to get chipping away on lots more destinations in Utah.
Utah is a great state, very beautiful and unusual, with much to see. I'm glad we've seen so much of it. Thanks for the good post, Vonnie.
You and Dad did a great job of taking us around our home state and I think it helped me grow an appreciation for the beauty of where I grew up.
