Road Trip 2007: Day 2

Monday, July 9th, 2007

Today we drove from Flagstaff, Arizona, to Ogden, Utah. The only particular bit of sightseeing we did was at the Glen Canyon Dam. Most of the pictures I took with a cheap point-and-shoot, with little consideration for good photography.

I’ll start with the KML file of our trip for Google Earth: 20070709.kml.

Our day began with breakfast at the Galaxy Diner in Flagstaff. It’s one of our favorite places to eat when we head out that way.

Our next stop was the aforementioned Glen Canyon Dam Visitor’s Center, just outside of Page, AZ. We opted not to go in, due to the airport-like security.

Next was a late lunch/early dinner at Mom’s Cafe in Salina, UT. This is another one of our favorite places to eat. I recommend the Broasted Chicken, but I got the chicken strips instead this time. The dinner bread is interesting. I think it’s probably more commonly known as Indian Frybread or Indian Flatbread. They call them scones in Utah, and every non-chain restaurant I’ve been in in the state serves them, so I call them Mormon Scones.

Finally, the sights of I-15, north of Salt Lake City.
