it there around 6:00 pm. We checked out the sites and stayed at the Treasure Island which was 49$ a night. Day 4: We had a great time in Vegas because when we hit the slots and we won 2,000 dollars that night. Next place was off to Salt Lake City Utah which is 420 miles exactly. For lunch we stopped off at Subway which costed us about 10 bucks. We reached there at 4:00pm and visited the lakes plus some family and friends. We stayed at our friend's house for the night and had a chicken dinner…

It wasn’t till 1890 when the Manifest happened and the LDS church gave up on living polygamy in order to become a state on January 4, 1896. However polygamy did not stop there. Polygamy was continued by some that lived around the border of Utah and Arizona, these people were part of the FLDS church founded by John Y. Barlow and Joseph White Musser in 1932. The FLDS church was created for those who refused to stop practicing polygamy, John Y. Barlow was the first to lead the FLDS church, Soon…

The Grand Canyon Our surprise trip to Las Vegas came to an end. Everyone was very mournful. We were on our way back to Arizona. We had just crossed the state border, and then later we had seen signs that said we were close to the Grand Canyon. My parents decided that since we had never been to the Grand Canyon before, then we should go. Everyone was so enthusiastic again. Even when we were still driving to the entrance, I saw the beautiful view. I saw the red mountains, the rivers that…

Is Salt Lake City prepared for a Zombie Apocalypse? Probably not, no. Nobody could ever be completely prepared for an Apocalypse, let alone an entire city. Whether it be mentally or physically prepared. Not everybody is prepared for what we have to deal with now, let alone when they’re constantly being invaded by flesh eaters. What would definitely be needed is medical care, plenty of non infected food and drinks, safe shelters, weaponry, transportation, power, service, and good leadership. It…

blurt it out. For my rivers and lakes I have the Colorado River, Humboldt River, the awesome Pyramid Lake, Lake Tahoe, and last but not least, well it probably is the least Walker lake. Its bordering states are Arizona, California, Oregon, Idaho, and Utah. Those states are important, so remember them because i might give you a pop quiz. Nevada’s major cities are Carson City, Reno, and of course Las Vegas. But i don't think Las Vegas beats the Hoover Dam. The Hoover Dam is a hydroelectric…

In the book, Into the Wild, the main character Chris McCandless worked for a few industries along his journey. I will also be looking for jobs when I am hiking through California to Oregon. Unlike Chris McCandless, I have a few skills that I have learned through my years at being at Carbon Career Technical Institute. My skills include knowing the basics of Solidworks, AutoCAD, designing blueprints, and creating 3D objects. The local economies of California and Oregon are particularly similar…

Utah is a great place, and it has its own very unique history , it was the land where the pioneers planned to settle , away from persecution . This state was settled by the Mormon Pioneers ( members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) who were led across the country by the church leader at the time Brigham Young. Their trek started in the city of Nauvoo, Illinois in the year of 1846, and it ended in Salt Lake City, Utah in the year of 1847.There were many explorations of new…

Put plainly the United States government’s treatment of Native Americans, in this particular case the Ute Indian nation of the old West, was, quite frankly disgraceful. Ranging from at best intimidation and prosecution and at worst which was sadly quite often one-sided warfare and outright large-scale slaughter. The Utes, the earliest inhabitants of Colorado, fittingly enough lived throughout Colorado. Like many Greats Plains Tribes, Their diet consisted Primarily of Buffalo, with the odd…

Unemployment in Preston County is an ongoing problem. Everywhere you see, people are working less and less. West Virginia is at the top of the state unemployment and labor statistics list. It has many people asking questions. Is it that hard to obtain a job in Preston County? The worst thing about the whole situation is that West Virginian residents seem like they do not want to work. MarketWatch reported in March of 2015 that less than half adults (18 or older) in West Virginia have a job.…
