This is where I live ...

Here is a beautiful new video about Utah.

I have done most of those things (skiing (downhill & cross-country) hiking, whitewater rafting, kayaking, riding horses, jeeping ...) and have been to most of those places. This IS where I live.

Yup, love Utah and been to a few of the places I saw on the video. Saw a few I'd like to visit, too.

Thanks for the video. Have been to many of those places but have not seen Utah in the winter with that much snow. Have been to Utah a few times and it is BEAUTIFUL. Talk about wonders of the world!!! There's lots to see and do there. Will probably go back again.

Really enjoyed the video ! You live in a lovely state Janice, I've been there a couple of times southern part mostly. I'm hoping to get back to see and enjoy more of it.

Thanks for posting this, I love seeing other states and their sights.

Safe and Happy travels,
Carol

Awesome, janice. Where can I find those waterfalls? Also, looks like that skiing on top of the mtn like that would create avalanches. Wow!

Utah is truly beautiful! Although I love watching those daring downhill skiers and snowboarders, I could NEVER dare to do that kind of snow sporting! You have it all out there! We have similar conditions here, but in miniature!

it looks like it would be really pretty as a former Utahan would love to see it in its entirety and maybe I could
if I wasn't so impatient it stops and goes takes 10 longer than its 2 min run :lol:
the tall waterfall though may be Calf falls in the southern part of the state around Kanosh maybe not sure
Chris took a picture of it for me once and it was not far from where she worked camped a couple of years ago

I thought the Rasta music was a bit odd for Utah ... but hey! Donny and Marie can't show up for every gig. :D

I'm downloading the video now so that I can watch it.

If your situation is anything like mine and have a sketchy connection so that vid's load really slow or hop, skip and jump while your trying to watch them? You can click on the vid and let it start, then hit pause. You can then let it finish loading while you look at something else. Go back to the vid and be able to watch it in it's entirety without all the frustrating crap. ;) We are using our Sprint broadband air-stick so yeah the vid's load really slow sometimes. :x

They do have wifi here in the campground available but haven't asked them about it. Might tho? Drives us bonkers as each of us, usually want to be on the laptops at the same time. :roll:

At the moment 'Mom' has the laptop and internet. Kelly has stolen the book I was reading. She isn't interested in the internet at the moment and refuses to give back my book until she's done with it. Silly kid was up until after 1am reading.

ps. just watched the vid, simply breath taking scenery!!! would love to know where the waterfall is! could handle swimming there.
