Park City, UT is about a half an hour away from our home. So, naturally we decided to spend our anniversary there. It is in the mountains, and a quaint town very reminiscent of my dear PDX, OR. And it is the hoity toity part of Utah. I'm talking Robert Redford owned restaurants, the ski clubs for movie stars and of course, even the 7-11 has a rustic outfitting. Not kidding.
We stayed in one of the villas of the Marriott which was as big as our house... But our friend works there so we paid about what someone would pay for a one night stay in a regular hotel room. But we stayed there for two nights and three days.
The first night we were mostly in the hotel room doing things, checking out the whirlpool bathtub, hanging out by the fireplace and cuddling. Maybe some other things... Then we were asleep at 9pm and woke up a half an hour later asking ourselves why we were falling asleep. So, we went out to Doolans Sports Bar and got a Long Island Ice Tea and a Midori sour for me. Of course the kitchen was closed, so we drank and ran next door to Butchers Chophouse and got a huge platter of steak fries and a rum and coke for me.. Then we just walked around and went back to the hotel room satisfied with our adventures.
Saturday morning we woke up refreshed and ready for the day. We had breakfast at Atticus coffeehouse which was totally amazing. I had a latte with an everything bagel that housed a tomato and sprouts. It was very similar to Powell's bookstore, save for the novelty. However I purchased this absolutely coffee mug. That's my thing. I buy cute coffee mugs to have an eclectic collection of my favorite things.
Then after Atticus we explored. We hopped on this ski lift which had an amazing view of P.C. and we got totally sunburned. I have a water blister now from where I baked like a honey ham.
After the ride we went for lunch at some sort of cheap Mexican place on the boardwalk. It was tasty. And then we headed back for an adventure. One of our wholesallers is located out in P.C. so I decided to pay a visit and we got some candy. I got these French looking lozenges that were probably made in China or somewhere.
Then we went back to the hotel and stayed in for awhile. Until our dinner reservation at Chez Betty. Our dinner was so delicious. We had a four course dinner with a different wine pairing per plate. Except I hate cheesecake which was dessert. Also there was a dollop of sour cream on the bison. I hate sour cream. Goodness gracious! After that we went to the hotel room.
Sunday morning we walked around the farmer's market and we had breakfast at Easy Street which was the best biscuits and gravy I had in town. Then we headed back home
Now here I am at home.
