Ps....I flew over salt lake city last month, and I was amazed at how beautiful it looks....I'm from Toronto Canada.....very flat....lol
It is BEAUTIFUL HERE! Minnesota is flat too. Blah. Not as flat as Oklahoma because we've got hills but there are no mountains in Minnesota...and it's REALLY COLD IN THE WINTER THERE!!!

tried to find an ACTUAL picture that either myself or DH has taken, but this is the Wasatch mountain line, and we live on the south eastern side of the mountains. Going from Minnesota to Utah, I really appreciate the beautiful mountains. DH however doesn't find them as fascinating since he's lived here all his life. I honestly love living in the valley. I get really excited when DH treats me to grocery shopping in a grocery store that's up ON the mountains verses IN the valley. It's beautiful, but the first time...I fainted in my stall in the woman's bathroom. It was my first day here...my MIL told me it was the change in altitude & air pressure. Going from nice, thick air to thinner air makes your body go through a change. My children never had a problem though. There is a few valley's here in Utah but from my understanding, the Salt Lake Valley has the best view because the Wasatch mountain line is the biggest. Northern Utah/Southern Idaho has a valley but their mountains are much smaller, and they are not as high up in altitude like the SLake valley is. Southern Utah, I hear is JUST as gorgeous but in a different way. It's less "mountains" and more "red rock". But, they are also huge, but more "cliff" style than anything.
Canada - I'm glad to hear you have faith in God too. If you don't mind me asking, what Christian denomination are you? I'm Lutheran. When I look at these mountains I just can't believe the beauty God has surrounded us with. It's just incredible.
