From Salty Slums to Glamping Fun

Our rough entry into Salt Lake last week got so much worse. There's just no other way to say it... Mia's new apartment that she was SO EXCITED to move into is owned by a slumlord. It was rough 2 days, especially for James. By the time we leave SLC, he was beside himself with frustration but Denise, always a gal who is up for a fun time, saves the day by booking a glamping trip for her man at @UnderCanvas and hot damn, if that didn't lift his spirits!

This episode is PACKED with adventures from Park City, Sundance and the regal Zion National Park. We also get into why people hate THE CALIFORNIANS... until they meet our wallets, anyway. In this episode money talks and so do we. You asked for more content and you got your wish!

This is the 2nd of 2 Salt Lake episodes.

It’s Gotten Real (Difficult) in Salt Lake City!

The trip from Seattle to Salt Lake started out great. An overnight stay with an old colleague and his wife in rural Washington was just what the doctor ordered. Bend, OR was fine but in Idaho City things start to come off the rails. Between a broken toe and a cracked windshield, the trip was becoming eventful enough. But a blown tire on the only remaining family car keeps our daughter from joining us in a timely fashion and we all land in Salt Lake with a thud. This episode features our middle child, Mia, who breaks down the Top 5 Likes and Dislikes of Salt Lake, as seen from the eyes of a University of Utah student who's already got a year in the Beehive State under her belt.
This is the 1st of 2 Salt Lake episodes. We'll recap where we went in the next one!
