Salt Lake City, Utah

Arrived at the Salt Lake City KOA Sunday afternoon around 2:00 - had missed the free shuttle into town however, decided to take the LRT which was just across the street.  Super clean, quiet and efficient (ran on tracks and had hydro lines).
Laurie's hair is a little more curly (from sitting in two churches) as we toured much of the Temple of the Latter Day Saints (Church of Mormons).  Two lovely young "sisters" toured us through and around the buildings - they were unbelievably full of data and fervent enthusiasm for their church.  Beautiful flowers, statues and buildings - and the acoustics were amazing.  They have a model of the inside of the temple (which the public cannot access) which was quite interesting too.  Free books of Mormon at the ready!
The organ has thousands of pipes, and only 5 people are trained to play it.  This is where the Mormon Tabernacle choir sings.
