Mountains everywhere, defining where I live

Wasatch Front beauty

For over 80 years, every Sunday, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir ("America's Choir") has broadcast to America and the World the delightful program "Music and the Spoken Word".

...from the Crossroads of the West,

In the shadow of the everlasting hills...

I can watch the program on television, or I can venture into downtown Salt Lake City and walk into the program LIVE.

In Sandy UT, in the Salt Lake Valley,I live in the shadow of the everlasting hills, the magnificent mountains of the Wasatch Front. Sometimes hazy, others absolutely crystal clear, today bathed in cloud with new snow evident, soon to have the charcoal and white covering of winter ~ always beautiful.

Salt Lake City, and its surrounding city/suburbs are great to visit anytime and a wonderful place to make your home.

I chose Sandy UT for my home, a great choice indeed.

Larry, The Wasatch are beautiful! I don't have the supplier in SLC any longer, so no more trips out there, but I always loved the trips out there. Awesome scenery, maybe a drive up to Park City for dinner or a stop at Red Iguana in SLC for great food. I'm going to miss those trips. Bill

I grew up in Ogden, graduated from college in Provo and still love the entire Salt Lake valley... we visit every year and just may end up there again one day. Not only is the scenery stunning, but there is everything one could want within a quick drive, be that shopping, services or recreation. You are a very lucky guy to call Sandy home.

Nice mountain views! I love the mountains. I lived in Colorado for a time. It was only for a little over a year but I loved it!

Bill - any excuse might do to keep up your relationship with the area.

Gretchen - you are still classified as a local. Thanks for the info.

Tom - I traded the Pacific coast of Australia for the Utah mountains over six years ago. For this part of my adventure called life, it has been a good trade.

Sussie - Mountains are attractive wherever they are. Have another view from a major hospital in Murray UT

Larry, living in Southwest Florida where 12 feet above sea level is considered a large hill, I envy your views of the mountains! Enjoy your day!

Wayne - sounds like you need to watch out for the 13 ft waves ;-} We certainly don't do tsunamis here.

Larry, my travels have not taken me to Utah yet, but maybe someday. Love mountain views, but Hubby like water--big bodies of water such as oceans since he is retired navy. Love your comment back to Wayne.
