Off We Go into the Wild Blue Yonder


Headed south from Brigham City on Tuesday.  Drove around Ogden for a bit.  I was very impressed with how vibrant the old section of the city known as 25th Street appeared.  Continued south on I-15 through Salt Lake City proper to Hill Air Force Base Museum that I had no idea how extensive a collection of aircraft they had.  The museum has an example of just about every fighter, bomber, transport and helicopter that has ever been utilized by the USAF.  The museum doesn’t charge admission but requests a $1 donation per person, the bargain of the century.

After spending several hours walking through their extensive collection that is housed both indoors and out we headed south making a stop at the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium in Draper.  The admission was a little pricey (I guess anything would be after the Hill Air Force Base Museum bargain), but they had some interesting exhibits of seahorse, jellyfish and penguins.  Made our way south to overnight at another Walmart, this one in Richfield, Utah.
