My vacation is right around the corner, starting the 25th of this month. I would like to know what is this doing for the people coming into SLC, is there a problem with the fires there? I am still (hopefully) looking forward to visiting your state, my first time there. Any sites I should try to work in? Thanks.

Want to tell you about my Salt Lake visit
as you said your MIL there. I visited there and that was the best smelling city I think I have ever been in. I wrote email to the chamber of commerce there stating that. Have no idea where the sweet smell from but wonderful smell walking on the steets there.
Yes Utah
is like that too...hot and dry...desert heat! Easily 110 to 118 on the hottest summer days.
There are atheists in Utah? Personally,

How many campus shootings have there been in Utah?
I think a more telling statistic would be how many have occurred in the state to date versus how many, if any, occur after the passage of this law.
Okay, Utah passed a law permitting college students to now carry guns. sm
I am very for this and think it's a great idea. Now let's see how many colleges in Utah have shoot outs like those in the other states. I bet shooters will think twice about going in and blowing a place up knowing that there are probably many people carrying concealed weapons. I would feel much safer in a Utah college than anywhere else.
Lake House!!!

Lake George
There's also Waterslide World nearby - good fun for your kiddies if the weather's hot!
lake george
Yes, we're leaving Monday for three days. No plans to swim at the lake though - just in the heated hotel pool...LOL. We actually going to be in Queensbury, so the main goal of the trip is "kid-style" fun activities. Our "beach" vacation is later this summer in Maine...To be honest, I don't care if it rains all three days while we're in Lake Goerge...I will be happy to get away and my 5yo son will be happy just to have a "little fridge" in the hotel room.
Lake George
Every summer as a little girl we use to camp at Lake George. I loved it!
Lake G-Ville
It is beautiful here. I am originally from Enterprise, AL but have been here for 15 years and love it. I live within walking distance to lake and love it! My DH drives 2-1/2 hours to work to Dalton GA, because he would rather live in Guntersville near the lake than move away from it. All should take advantage of it if close. Can't wait til the leaves start changing, but we need rain!!!
ER MT have you been to Lake George?
We were just there this past July. I love that area. So beautiful. Would love to see it in the fall. Only a 3-1/2 to 4 hour ride from northern NJ for me.
Near Lake George
and the snow, she's a comin' down !
Property I am trying to sell right on the lake
and the people around there kinda sound like you and yours. That is why I am selling!
I feed birds on the lake
quite often and really enjoyed doing it. I have seen others do as well and I do not see them becoming aggressive as a result of this. I also see the geeze and ducks feeding on their own when not being fed by humans. I have deer in my neighborhood and as much as I would love to feed, know this is not a good idea and should not so I don’t. I think that other mother is a total jerk for her reaction, though.
lake george NY ideas?
We are going to Lake George for three nights, leaving on Monday and returning Thursday. We are staying at the Country Inn and Suites right next to the park. Has anyone ever stayed there? I think it used to be called the Wakita and they redid it in 2006. Any input as to activities, we are 2 adults - mom and dad - and daugther, 8yo, and son 5yo. So far, we are using our season passes for the Six Flags Great Escape, maybe ride the boat Minne Ha Ha on the lake, mini golf... I think there is a drive-in nearby so we might check that out one night if it's nearby. Any personal favorites out there? Has anyone ever been to the Fort William Henry museum?
Oh - and "family-friendly" restaurant recommendations!
Thanks! 
Hot at Lake George, even hot in the Catskills.

Cut the salt in whatever you eat during day and stretch
s
as in wrech me the salt
To me it should be pass me the salt. Am I wrong about this?
Have you given up salt? Seems excessive.

I liked the Lake House...and critics didn't if I remember
I liked her in A Time to Kill as well, but I'm a big Matthew McConaughey fan, which is why I watched it in the first place.
sea salt and diluted vinegar
It burns at first, but really dries up and heals your sinuses. You can use an eyedropper and tilt your head back if you don't have an actual nasal inhaler bottle.
I can't cook, so take this with a "grain of salt," sm
and maybe someone already posted this, but the best meatloaf is made with stove top stuffing as the filler...
Good luck.
I think the sweetness just combines with the salt from the ham
s
can you separate the flavor from salt?
no, no more than you can separate the Christianity from the Christian. why should he have to HIDE his Bible in a drawer -- because the mere sight of it offends you non-believers? now THAT is silly. and calling the word of God propaganda is very offensive. Ah, but no so much to me as to HIM. and you will one day be before that 'big guy in the sky' and wishing you hadn't been so foolish.
Thanks. I just ordered the salt and the baconaise
I think, if the Baconaise is good, DH will be happy. He can have BLTs again. That's his favorite sandwich.
Popcorn, homemade, with butter and a little salt

Sorry, meant to say garlic salt, not sauce!mt

I saw this on Martha Stewart....you pour salt into a paper bag
put the flower head first into the bag upside down, twist the top sorta so salt doesnt fall out and shake it around like shake-n-bake. it breaks up the dust and knocks it off..never have tried it myself though..but sounds like it might work..martha stewart style.
Chicken broth and salt water gargling
but we mix in about the same amount of baking soda as salt in the hot water. It improves the taste and helps cut that feeling that acid is eating away your throat.
Brunch guest who can't have dairy or salt - snowed in!
Out of ideas! Also, looking for simple recipe for brunch requiring stuff I have on hand. Martha always has some confounded ingredient I never heard of. Lost my hash brown recipe. Have frozen hash browns, sour cream, cr. chicken soup, butter & chips, forgot how I put them all together last time. Locked in, more snow coming, zero degrees in NE, don't even know if people will make it here. I'm frustrated. Have a spiral ham on hand, thank goodness! Sounds like I'll be cooking but will they come in the stormy weather. Darned if I do, darned if I don't! The no dairy, no salt thing is driving me up the walls.
Oh well, have a happy holiday. Tip: Put furniture polish or cooking oil on your snow shovel and the snow won't stick.
Here are some dairy-free recipes. Then leave out the salt, of course

I have tried their bacon salt, which is good, but haven't tried baconnaise. nm

Recipe for oven dried tomatoes with olive oil, sea salt and garlic!? Where? Please share! NM

best city
Believe it or not, Cleveland, Ohio. I've lived all over the Midwest and East Coast and loved Chicago and Minneapolis, but the people in Cleveland were definitely the friendliest. Easy to make friends and cost of living was pretty decent. Also lots of fun night life and great museums.
Sex and the City is definitely up there at the top. nm

what city are you in? nm

Know the city well, you can get 1 of the
weekly hotels and live from there. I would not like this situation at all- if he has worked there for awhile, just making until May should not make that much difference. Had home right in Atlanta and sold year before last, moved further towards Rex.
So he's never even been TO the city before? sm
Just from what you've posted, it sounds like he is sorely underprepared to take this job. No sales experience and never been to NYC, but taking a job doing cold-call sales in the toughest city? YIKES.
NYC is great city, full of life and energy, but man you have to be prepared.
LOTS of info can be found online, of course; just start Googling. Everything from maps of the subway system, to where to park, etc. Travel guides at the bookstore can help.
Seriously, what kind of a company gives the new guy the Manhattan territory? And then gives no informational support? The whole story gives me a bad feeling. Hopefully I'm just missing details.
sex and the City
I know some of us are working tonight, like me, but have any of you seen the movie sex and the City tonight and how was it? I hope to see it this weekend between shifts.
Sex & the City, plus
1. Anything with Ben Stiller
2. Anything with Sarah Jessica Parker
3. Anything with Angelina Jolie
4. Anything with Madonna
5. Anything with Brad Pitt
New York City
Does anyone know if New York City is extremely crowded on Black Friday? I'm going on a bus trip that day to do some shopping. Just curious if it was as crowded that day as it was the week before Christmas.
I pay $85 in a big city, but she does spend 45 sm
minutes or so washing, cutting and styling may between chin and shoulder length hair. Five minutes is ridiculous. I don't see how they can even do a good job in that amount of time.
Yes, I know $85 is high (plus tip). I have just had so many hack jobs at less money that I got scared and went to a trendier place in the city.
Is that the one where the girl goes to the inner city...
to live with her dad after her mom dies and she gets involved with the black student and she auditions for Julliard?
OMG - I love sex and the city
Just heard online today it is confirmed, they are making a movie. Can't wait
But is that not rural and not city
taxes? I had some property in the country, 200 something compared to my city home of over 2,000.
Not in city limits
We're about 2 miles out of town. Of course the town is 8500 people. A well known town, but small, nonetheless. :-)
City in illinois
Its Oswego. Lived around here forever
City in Illinois
I was going to put this on the state board for Illinois, but I noticed that no one's posted there in months. The doctor is stating the patient worked at GE in s/l Owings, Illinois. I googled cities in Illinois for the correct spelling and I can't find anything even close. Any ideas?
I hate it too, even in my own city (sm)
I find that as I get older, it's not even a question of not seeing as well. It's almost more like disorientation,if it's an area I'm kind of familiar with, but not really. Like I will be not quite sure how much farther I have to go to the light and then when I get to the light, I'm not sure what cross street I'm at. Sound funky. Kind of hard to explain.
everything that is now gone, Sopranos, Sex and the City...
Love The Riches on FX. NetworkTV is too dumbed down, bad sitcoms (except 30 Rock and The Office, sometimes ok), bad dramas and overrated reality shows. And the soaps, fugetaboutit, UGH!
150 inhabitants? Is this really a city?...s/m
Are you the same person who posted this nasty reply to 'abc' on 11/16/08?
Now I can undertand that living in a VILLAGE (or BOX) with 150 people gives you a backward insight on a lot of issues.
