When we lived in England, we visited as many interesting
places as we could. We enjoyed playing tourist immensely, and were shocked at
how few of our neighbors had bothered to see spots – like Hadrian’s Wall,
Nottingham Castle, or Portmeirion – that were practically in their own backyards.
Playing tourist in Utah requires a bit more effort, as everything seems to be a
lot farther from home. But here’s our Utah sightseeing bucket list so far: We’ve
heard the Hardware Ranch in Hyrum is a great place to see a few hundred elk up
close. We found Bryce Canyon absolutely stunning (and we’d go back in a shot),
but we’ve never been to Snow Canyon. We’ve never seen the Spiral Jetty, or the
Golden Spike National Historic Park. Several of my students have been to
Crystal Hot Springs in Honeyville, but somehow, we’ve never made that trip. If your
next vacation had to be close to home, where would you go?
