Americans are super friendly.

We like Fat Tire Amber Ale is our beer of choice.

Burgers and fries are seem to be the staple food. They are really yummy.

Flags are very important here.

Jackson is cooler than Steamboat.

There is good Espresso here, you just need to be told where. Salt lake City is winning so far.

You REALLY don't have to where a motorcycle helmet when riding.

The movie Roadhogs seems to be based on truth.

There is more to Salt Lake City than Mormons. Drinking IS allowed. The mountains really are right there. trios is an awesome restaurant.

It was possible to borrow 125% of a home loan. Yep that's the cost of the house PLUS another 25%. This is one of the reasons for the economic crisis here and around the world.

Energy bagels from Safeways ROCK.

Whole Foods supermarket is still of favourite.

McDonalds don't do Caramel Sundaes???

Enough for now as we are sure you are bored.
