Facts learned: The Deseret alphabet is a sound-based alphabet developed by the Mormons (promoted by Brigham Young) in the mid-1800s. / TRAX, the public transportation system in Salt Lake City, essentially operates on the honor system (we bought tickets, but they were not required for entry, nor were they checked on the train) / Salt Lake City is a quiet town ...
Classical works selected as soundtracks for the majestic Colorado/Utah scenery: Well-Tempered Clavier Book I by Bach (Gould), Horn Trio by Brahms
Funny lines of the day:
“Drive 170 miles on I-70W.” ~ Suzy, aka our GPS (last stretch of I-70 on this trip!!)
“Is this the dessert?” ~ Ann (at Grand Junction, Colorado)
“Gusty winds likely.” ~ Road Sign (encountered on US-6)
