In any case . . . ever hear the Beach Boys song, "Salt Lake City"? "Babes" around here tend to run pretty, and usually religious. Long shorts and capped sleeves tend to mean "devout", but not always. If you like Mexican restaurants, go to Baja Cantina. Excellent food. It's kind of hard to hit it wrong in Park City, unless you're looking for cheap. It's a resort town, and they use it to their advantage. Check out Park City's chamber of commerce for a good run-down of what's available. Jason, I'm so glad you went to the Olympic park and had a good time! It's a lot of fun up there, if you don't faint from the altitude ;-) The beer thing is kind of interesting. USA Today did a brief article on the liquor laws in Utah, and mentioned the beer alcohol content. The short of it is, we measure the beer by weight, not volume, so our 3.2% is actually 4% in the rest of the country. It's not much, but at least it makes it sound a little closer to the normal 6%. Trust me, we get culture shock when we visit other states and see that they have a wine section in their grocery store. "Can they do that? Won't they get in trouble?" Yeah, we're odd. We just don't really know it. Glad you had a good time, and avoided the moose! CAM,

Also how are the babes in that part of the country? Could you recommend any good restaurants in the Park City area?
