I was gonna post a quick LDS joke, but don't want to anger our LDS friends... No matter whatever faults there are in the area, the folks were incredibly friendly. I couldn't work in my yard or on my Jeep without someone offering a hand. A real sense of community there. However, I will admit the church was a bit intrusive. All told, I truly enjoyed the Ogden area.
I am LDS by upbrining, and i've spent my whole life in or around the military. You'd be amazed how many of us DON'T wanna go there.
If they get angry over a joke, then I would say it was THEIR problem, not yours. I know two people who were raised LDS in other areas. They both became totally disenchanted with Mormonism after moving to Utah.
well, i'll do what i did on my way to Ogden last week, and stop when it gets bad. I wanted to get to Ogden by sunday (load didnt drop till monday) but drove from Cheyenne to mm173 wb and called it quits at that Love's. Night was falling, had not seen many snow plows out to prep the roads, and it was starting to snow harder. No need to chance it.... and the SLC terminal is kinda like the Gary terminal.....just nicer, cleaner and you dont have to worry about getting shot.
I was going to comment on this at the time, but that was the time i was put on forced vacation by the board. =) but you probably drove right by me....HAHAHAHAHAH
