This won't be a lengthy post by any means, but I thought it would be fun to post something directly from Monticello, UT. My ward came down here to visit the temple and are staying in the Rodeway Inn & Suites. It is a very "glamorous" facility, mostly due to the fact that they have internet access from a community computer in the lobby (right next to where they served the free continental breakfast). Each room also is equipped with a 19" TV and a mini fridge. All in all and in all honesty, the place worked out perfectly. The lovely people here gave us a group discount and the bishop said the ward would pay for half of the cost...that means each of us only have to pay $9 (don't forget, that includes breakfast!)!
I love visiting these types of small towns. What I love most is that there always seems to be one of those amazing "mom-and-pop" type of burger/shake joints. My goal for the day is to find one before we have to leave...burger, onion rings, shake...seriously what could be better?

I hope we do find a good burger joint for lunch. Especially since my healthy me campaign allows free weekends.
MMMMM, you got my mouth watering!
What a fun thing to do as a ward. My Aunt Luanne and her husband live in Monticello, but I haven't been there for about 10 years. It probably hasn't changed much. :)
I could really use some fries at Red Robin now. With that dipping sauce. And ranch.
I just talked to you on the phone and it sounded like you had a great time. Up for another burger and fries? I know a Crown Burger near you. I'm salivating.
And I love how they call it "Monti-sello" here in Utah. Classic non-Italian pronunciation. Sweet home, Utah.
