Newest Review: ... seen a real live ostrich so we pulled over and there were little zip lock baggies of feed to feed them with. This farm asked for a small donation of 2.00 dollars we gladly paid the fee and fed the huge birds. It was a true expierence that my daughter will for ever remember. As we continued to drive to the entrance of the park we drove through a small town that had a artistic feel to it. There were many little bed and breakfast places along the way as well as Galleries and even rock and gem shops. It was such a neat little town to drive through. Finally after driving through what I felt was such a picturesque town we arrived at th... more

After driving through Utah many times on our way to Vegas to many to count actually we finally chose to stay and explore the town of St George Utah.

Salt Lake City, is a clean and somewhat dull city, in general. There is a model village from the time the Mormons first headed west to establish the city, and you can take tours of Brigham Young's House (Brigham Young ... Read the complete review
