When in Morm....

This post is long overdue, and for that I apologize. In April, we went to Salt Lake City. Jon had a Solar Cities Conference, and I defended my thesis. It was a nice "break" from routine in Orlando. I spent most of my free time roaming around the downtown area of the city. The whole Temple Square area was absolutely beautiful, as you can see from the photos.

Flowers and mountains galore.

When in Morm...do as the Mormons! Here I am in front of the Temple, and then in front of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.



The picture on the right is taken on top of the Mormon conference center. It is a huge greenroof, which of course Jon went nuts over. Yes, that grass you see is on the ROOF. In the picture on the left, you can see that same greenroof in the background.

Jon was talking about this food truck for weeks before we went to SLC. You have to go on the internet in the morning to find out where it will be parked that day. We found it on the last day and ate its wonderful delicacies...Asian-Mexican fusion. Those are lemon-grass chicken tacos, ginger beef tacos, some sort of calamari taco, and some root chips. Yum!
