One of those welcome signs on the overpass would have sufficed
We're here for less than 24 hours and guess what?
We got robbed in Utah! In my own growing-up hometown! What's up with that?
Our rental car was parked in front of my parents' house last night and someone broke in and took:
- Greg's Garmin navigation system that I brought from home (the one he always puts away but I left out in plain sight on the front window)
-Lauren's ipod, left in her purse, along with...
-Lauren's digital camera AND
-$100 of Lauren's hardearned babysitting money she wanted to use for school clothes
Yeah, Lauren didn't come out of it so well, poor thing.
Oh the irony! Lauren is the one who considers Utah to be nirvana: where we waterski, play, see family, sleep in...the land of fun + relatives + cute boys + vacation + Hire's cheeseburgers + no chores. And this valley here? Literally the land of milk (Aggie ice cream, creamies) and honey (Cox's).
Sorry, Utah, you just slipped a few notches.
We'll give you some chances to show us your good stuff in the coming days though...

THAT IS HORRIBLE! WHY DO PEOPLE DO THAT?
Sorry, I'll stop yelling. But that is ridiculous! Poor Lauren.
Stinky.
Sorry.

Awful. Who would have guess in Logan...I truly thought it was the land of milk and honey...

So sorry!
I know...when I was at my reunion watching the dirty dancing and beer guzzling...I kept thinking, "Is this really Zion?"
Sometimes it's hard to tell...
Oh, how sad! Poor Lauren. I had my ipod stolen at the gym. It really dampens your spirit of humanity.
What a crummy way to start a vacation. It looks like everything is going much better, though. I hope Lauren and her mother are able to have restored faith in humanity and the power of itunes.
Cannot believe this happened. I know where your parents live! Crazy. We hardly locked our house when I was growing up. I know they do now. It's sad it is coming to that. LOVE the apples-to-apples acting. The cheese grater was my favorite.
