#Utah125


On January 4th under a shower of fireworks at what used to be our family "birthday park" (Valley Regional Park in Taylorsville), we wished Utah a very happy birthday and hatched a plan. To mark Utah turning 125 years old this year, we’re going to visit 125 quintessentially Utah places.  Here is our working list of links for potential sites.
