Day 14: Driving into Salt Lake
Gooooooood morning from 40 degree Yosemite! We had an eventful night of windy gusts, hungry birds and “hamburger helper.” We had a pleasant surprise of some extra sleep this morning, much needed! For breakfast, the Dopeys prepared Yahoos, clementines and 1 Walmart pop tart per person, (which was due to a miscalculation) we’re still a little hungry, please send food!
Everyone fell asleep during the morning drive. We’ve never been happier to see civilization than to see Walmart and free plastics bags! The cooks stocked up for a few travel meals while the rest of us snacked on Walmart’s hot-n-ready popcorn chicken and tater wedges.
Those riding the bus had the privilege of watching Inside Out, while the vans debated various topics and listened to “Old Town Road” for half of the ride. Josh slept. Our camera memory was threatened due to the lack of storage they now have from all the photos we have taken. Which are more full than our stomachs. After a long ride, we arrived at a Pilot where we filled up on snacks and gas and emptied our bladders.
“Minions! Tonight we steal…the (salt).” Ian said as we explored the saltiest place we’ve ever been. Entering Utah, oh boy, what a salty state, but we love it! In TWB tradition we all licked the salt off the ground. Rumor has it Vicky keeps a chunk of salt to spice up her breath before she licks her targets in the morning.
For dinner we had pepperoni and salami Hawaiian roll sliders with lettuce, and carrots with ranch. We had enough in the budget to get on brand items, no Great Value in this sandwich! The sunset was gorgeous. We finally arrived at the gym.
We are overjoyed to be warm inside and no wind. There is no showers but glad to be warm. Tomorrow we see THE Mormons.
Love you all!!!! 🫶 Kayla, Callen, Kendyl, Noah, Stella, Savy, Henry, Nevaeh, Elijah, Laine, and Vivienne. ACHOOOOO!!
