Saltair III - Salt Lake City, UT

 


Saltair has an extensive history in the SLC area, and has been rebuilt three times due to fire. I would encourage you to Google the background pin this place; it is truly interesting. I seriously wanted to see it because it was used in the 1993 film "Josh & S.A.M."

Located in Western Utah is the geographical oddity known as the Bonneville Salt Flats. Trust me, it's not snow - it's salt.

Yellowstone National Park - Wyoming

 
Yellowstone has so many wonderful things to see, I don't even know where to begin. I decided to post photos of their geysers, which are incredible. If you haven't visited Yellowstone, add it to your list of musts!

Napoleon's House - "Napoleon Dynamite" Filming Location - Preston, ID


This one has been on my "bucket list" to see for awhile. In the above image mix, the top image is a still from the film Napoleon Dynamite and below it is the same location in June of 2021. You can find it at 1447 E 800 N in Preston, Idaho.


The above image is to the right of the home as you face it. The two posts sticking out of the ground is where Napoleon would have fed their pet llama Tina.


 This above image is the view directly across the street from Napoleon's house. This is where Lyle shot the cow in front of the kids on the school bus.

As the old cliché goes, photos absolutely do not do it any justice.
