It’s a different world
I have been spending time in Utah with family. It is so different here. They live in a small area; you can’t really call it a town. There are no businesses but a few houses. It is nice but I must admit a little frustrating when you want to purchase something.
The view from anywhere is beautiful. Beautiful, snow covered mountains surround the whole area. Driving down the road you can see deer and elk. There are no close neighbors to cause noise or complain if you cause noise.
I have to say I would not trade if for my own area. I live out of town also but it is a short drive to buy almost anything I want. I had to drive several miles just to find a cup of coffee. I am surrounded by coffee establishments at home.
Of course it is all worth it to be with family. And it is a great place to visit. I hope to come back many times in the future.
I am married and the mother of six (yes, six!) grown children. I live in western Washington where it does rain a lot but not as much as you think.
