Libraries rule!

So now that I have a blog, I naturally want to post every day. Well, that's easier said than done up here in Park City! First off, there is no internet access at our hotel. So I tried up at the Lodge, where the connection was so spotty, I spent more time waiting to connect than actually blogging. Then we headed to trusted ol' Starbucks just a few blocks from where we are staying. Who knew Starbucks closes at 9pm! Based on a tip, we headed over to Albertsons, where supposedly we'd be able to get free wireless access while sitting in their mini Starbucks. No such luck – their server was experiencing technical difficulties (something about a Sputnik error, yikes!).

So, where did finally find warm, fast, and free internet access? Yep, the library! (which also happens to be a Sundance Theater this week but no celebs sighted as of yet). So, lesson learned: in today's fast-paced and tech-savvy world of chain stores and cafés, don't forget about what libraries have to offer. (Of course, I should have thought of going there first, given that my hubby Todd is a librarian!)
