We got up fairly early on Saturday morning. You know, most hotel breakfasts these days are grab n go, hardly worth getting up for, but not the Hampton Inn. They require plastic gloves and masks, but other than that, they feel almost like pre-pandemic days with a full breakfast bar.
We were just finishing up when the lights in the breakfast area flickered and then went out. The large lobby windows let in the morning sun, so it wasn't actually dark. My sweetie headed for the front desk and after he confirmed that our keycards would still work, we made our way to the stairs. As I told you yesterday, we were on the third floor, so it was a bit of a hike.
Our balcony windows gave us plenty of light to pack while we waited somewhat impatiently for the lights to come back on. We weren't excited about dragging our suitcases down the stairs, but as the minutes ticked by, it soon became inevitable. We checked out just before 11:00 still without power.
We didn't have time on Friday to drive around town much, so my sweetie took me up by the temple. Then we drove over to Utah State. It is very different from our days there, but the Creamery is still the same.
And their ice cream is still delicious!!
Unfortunately, it was time to leave. We had other weekend promises to keep and home was still two hours away. It was a good thing we were well-rested because the next 8 hours would be grueling...
