So at the Salt Lake County Building and the Salt Lake Library they often have events going on at various times of the year. Well I have never been interested in going, never been to anything there. I always assumed it was always some eco-friendly lets all drive hybrids and ride a bike hippie stuff going on there. Well this weekend I went and I was very surprised!
This weekend it was the Utah Arts Festival and they had some pretty wicked stuff there. I was so tempted to buy this leather bracelet, but didn't because I don't want to look like a puffter. There also had some pretty amazing art pieces which I wouldn't really buy, well maybe a couple of them, but they were great to see.
They also had bands playing. I stayed for all of one of them. Eyes Lips Eyes. Pretty impressive. Never heard of them before the weekend but before going I had heard them on YouTube. The YouTub Video was ok, but live they were amazing! Got a few pictures too. And one of the band member even got a bloody nose, so a little humor for me too!
So I am actually admitting it, I was wrong, maybe they do have some good stuff going on up there. I guess I may go back more often and take a good gander. Also Wendy's is just up the road and they have amazing chili, so a great excuse to go on up.
I also went over to Liberty Park at about 900 South 600 East in Salt Lake. I know a ton of people never go there much because they think its scary. Maybe it was back in the day, but pretty sweet now. Awesome for people watching and pictures. Nice beautiful lake there that was flooded with oil last year, but that baby is back to life now with ducks and crap floating on it.
I think it would be awesome to go late at night, maybe sit on a bench or something with the one you love and just talk. It so beautiful and peaceful. But probably get mugged but some homeless geezer.
But all in all a pretty dope weekend really :) Hopefully there will be more like it.
Nice Post:) So jealous about the Arts Festival, I've always wanted to check it out, sound like it was a fun event. Interesting thoughts about Liberty Park as well but you forgot to mention your Walmart visit...
