- Your son comes home and says, “wouldn’t it be cool to have a compost pile.”
- Everything is so close in proximity you never have to get in the car.
- You get angry when you have to drive to Orem because it is just so far away.
- Driving to Salt Lake feels like a road trip.
- The leaders of the school PTA, to show appreciation for the parent volunteers, say at the conclusion of their announcement over the P.A. system, “sure love ya!”.
- You get slightly teary when your son sings the Utah State Song with his school class at a ceremony featuring the Mayor on the steps of the City Library.
- You see cars driven around town that you haven’t seen for 20 years (i.e., Honda Passports, Toyota Celicas, convertible Geo Metros, etc).
- You get to see fabulous concerts on Temple Square for FREE!
- You walk to do your visiting teaching.
- When you are at a musical performance on BYU campus and there is a prayer at the beginning, your daughter looks at you and says pointing to the crowds, "do all these people go to church?"
- You beg people to come visit.

Yay!! go Nancy!! Thanks for the fun Utah post!! I want more of those Utah sayings...I can finally hear the accent...been in CA long enough. Why is it in utah that every word is shortened: ya, goin', doin', sometimes letters are taken out of the middle of a word like...what's the big dil? "deal" maybe it's the canning pickles thing. I know that you will truly be in Utah when you (not Scotty) start bottling anything..let me know if that happens and I will come and whisk you away. I am a good friend like that:)
yep, you are definitely in utah! although i think the compost pile would have been accepted our here by the berkeley folk.
