Tourism growth in Utah brings success to the state, satisfaction to the sojourner

July 17, 2012 12:00 AM
Breathtaking hike in the morning. Breakfast at a hometown diner afterward. An enlightening tour of the headquarters of a worldwide church with fine-dining lunch somewhere in between. One four or five hour drive later and the rest of the afternoon is spent ascending a 1,200 foot summit in a national park, only to finish the day with a delightful presentation of a Shakespeare play.
