Made it to SLC

Feeling much better today, though still weak. I visited Golden Spike National Monument, which is where the transcontinental railroad was finished. I was going to visit the Great Salt Lake, but was tired and the drivers here are insane so I checked into the hotel and am doing laundry. I'm annoyed with my hotel because there was no soap in my room and there are a bunch of teenagers running around. Here's hoping I can eat tonight and will be completely better by tomorrow.

I forgot to mention I saw Mount St. Helens yesterday while driving...pretty cool. I'd like to visit the monument, but yesterday was not the day for that.

After driving in small town traffic I almost hate to be in the city...but I'm looking forward to checking out Temple Square, then I signed up for a guided tour of the Great Salt Lake and some mine, because I just don't want to deal with driving in this city. I'll take an isolated highway any day!
