    I've been here forever! 37 years today, as a matter of fact! (Yes, my parents, in their infinite wisdom, chose to drive us across the desert from California in un-air conditioned vehicles - Moving truck and a '62 Chevy station wagon - overnight on the Fourth of July, 1969! *LOL*)

    I love it here! There's so much to do (and we're not gamblers ;-) and we're so close to the mountains, the lake AND an easy drive or flight to all the wonderful places (DISNEYLAND) in California.

    It's hotter than heck in June, July and August - doesn't cool down substantially until the end of September, but the rest of the year is absolutely gorgeous. The only place I know with better weather is California. :) And our traffic - while not too great sometimes - is still better than theirs! *LOL*

    I'm so glad to hear you love it so far... Be sure and keep an eye on the LPMeets board. LVBelle and I just got together on Saturday at the Macayo's Mexican Restaurant on Tropicana and Maryland Pkwy. That's our usual place and we try to get together once every couple of months. She'll be out of commission for a little bit now - expecting her first child at the end of August - but we'll definitely be planning another meet shortly after that! :)

    How on earth do they reconcile their books!?

    And yep, I absolutely agree. . . nobody should have to work as hard as we did to get a kinda sorta fair price for absolutely crappy accommodations. Hopefully we've saved others from making the mistake of staying there.

    I'll just bet that there are lots of people out there that would like to get interest free loans like the Deseret Inn does!
