3 June - Laundry Day, Amish Store and Cleaning

3 June
Nothing too exciting today.  Just like being at home, the chores never end.  We started out this morning with cooking breakfast outside.  Was a beautiful morning, except for the nasty bugs - mosquitoes and "no-see-um's"!  We talked to a neighboring camper who sprays his campsite with a home-made concoction that involves garlic and he swears by it.  The whole area smelled like garlic bread!!

After breakfast we then headed into the town just north of us called Brigham (Mormon country, you know!) to do laundry.

Laundry went fairly quickly with the large but expensive machines they had.  On the way back to the campground we cruised through town to seek out the post office and sight-see a bit.  Many beautiful Latter-Day Saints / Mormon churches in the area.

Headed back to the campground we stopped at an Amish Country Store.

Kind of funny, there are no Amish here in Utah per the store checkout lady.  All the stuff here is shipped in, but still good!!   Disappointed a bit as we had hoped to score some Amish pies or other baked goods.  Not so much, but they did have a great selection of salsas, jellies, jams, spices, candies, cheese, pickles, jerky, batter, you name it and they have it!  I found some pickled hot beets and could not resist.  Doreen bought some cilantro that will surely find it's way into some of her Warren Country Fair Blue Ribbon-winning salsa!.

 Back to the campground to vacuum, Swiffer the floors, and then watch the Chicago Cubs beat the St Louis Cardinals.  Pizza in the Dutch Oven again tonight but no pictures this time.  Came out great but was a little different using lump "Cowboy" charcoal.  I think it burns a little hotter so may need to adjust the coals next time around.

Tomorrow we are headed down to Salt Lake City to tour the Temple Square which includes the Mormon Tabernacle and area surrounding it.  Monday we plan to visit Ogden's historic Union Station which includes the Browning Firearms Museum, the Utah State Railroad Museum, a Classic Car Museum and Utah State Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum.  There are also many shops and stores at Union Station.
