A Great Escape (or hanging out with the Comic Con crowd)

Picture a perfect September evening, after a long, busy, extra- warm week of work.

Imagine the ambience of City Creek Mall in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah.

Throw in some great company.

Spend some time relaxing over a yummy dinner of Johnny Rocket hamburgers and people watching.  Did I mention it was Comic Con weekend?

Laugh, listen, and linger until the sun sets and the cool fall air sooths away the stress of the week.

Return home refreshed and invigorated.

(Unless you spent the night at the Marriott Hotel in the Presidential Suite- on roll in cots.)

It really was a great escape- kind of like losing yourself in a familiar comic book, novel, or movie!

Oh how fun, JoAnn! My husband and I love to visit Salt Lake and have been to this Mall. We've come to the city several times for concerts. Great pics of your weekend retreat!

Comic Con is a fun event to see! I'm glad you were all able to stay in one room together, in the Presidential suite no less! Has school started there? My grandsons have been in school two weeks and my granddaughter in preschool for one week. It seems summer passed by too quickly!

I certainly like this tradition we have created of going girls night out over comic con weekend. It sure makes for a fun time!

Sounds like you had a blast....and it's nice to see how the Marriott caters. We truly love the Marriott and have a time share with them. This made me smile.
