A wedding invitation took DH and me to Utah this weekend.
As much as I enjoyed the ceremony and the party and the family gathering…
I really disliked the traffic.
But back to the traffic on Interstate 15 through Salt Lake City--
was well over the posted limit.
Only moments after we passed this distracting sign—
we crept past a line-up of highway patrol cars, lights blinking.
Then a fender-bender that must have involved at least three vehicles.
Fortunately it didn’t look like the collisions had resulted in serious injuries.
So, although Idaho weather is cold and ugly for long periods of time,
it tends to keep away the crowds.

Hahaha. An idaho traffic jam. Love it.
yup. the longer i stay out of the daily commute into Dallas, the more i like the country traffic jams here too.
Thanks for taking me to your happy wedding tour. ((o(゚▽゚○)(○゚▽゚)o))♪ I'm excited with big city, wide highway, highway patrol cars and the plate of IDAHO being famous for potatoes in Japan. WOW ♪
I agree..traffic makes me twitch!
Traffic is the reason that I have not been to Seattle for a while- unless Stella is driving- She can handle it...Salt lake gives me the creeps for many reasons but that is one of the cities we had to shop in for before- school's- start, back then I had a fondness for shopping...now I prefer the nothingness of zero population and your spudnik traffic.
Welcome home- hope your pkg arrived. THANK YOU!(silly)
I'm with you on the dislike of traffic - we had quite a shock a couple of eweeks ago when we went to Wales, which involved driving on VERY busy motorways. Traffic here is similar to yours ..... and there is the odd traffic jam caused by a flock of sheep on the road!
I feel the very same way.

Love your Idaho traffic jam photo. Reminds me of when we had community parades in the small country town I was teaching in. The tractors always pulled the floats, just lazin' along, and through-traffic just had to take a different route!
I enjoyed the travel scenes from your part of the world.
I hear ya I have a deep dislike for Utard traffic. yikes!
ps: thanks so much for the scripture and comment. it helped bunches ( hug)
A "distracting" sign about safety....that's a good one, Leenie!
I recall driving through Idaho a couple years ago and how very easy it was! So few cars!!

I'll take the Idaho traffic jam any day of the week, Leenie :) (And a visit to that amazing art supply store!)
I HATE roads and long road trips
that is what TRAINS are for.
America is so HUGE it boggles the mind
I hope you had a good time when you were away?
But I bet you are glad to be home.
I like your kind of traffic jams..we have them here too. I shudder to think of going anyplace that has four lanes of traffic:)
