This was strictly a travel day to get to Salt Lake City to see our granddaughter, Hannah. After leaving Fernley it was 7 hours and 488 miles to get to today's destination. Weather was sunny, wind was at our back most of the time so got better gas mileage. It is a cool fact that yesterday we drove about 4 miles on four-lane highways with all the rest on two-lane state and US routes. Today we had no two-lane highway--sometimes 10-lane but no two-lane.We wanted to miss "downtown" Salt Lake City so we put Magna, UT as a waypoint so we could get off I-80 and end up at our motel. We obediently followed direction (although we did wonder to ourselves--not to each other) that the route seemed odd. When the GPS said, "You have arrived at your destination" we were on a residential street in the middle of Magna--17 miles from our motel 😁. Magna appeared to be a cool little town.
The highlight of today was spending a couple of hours with Hannah. We had dinner, chatted and planned our outing for tomorrow. We are so thankful for our Hannah and very proud of the young woman she is.
