Utah's perfect summers

I always tell my out-of-state friends, and particularly those who live in the Eastern part of North America and abroad, that our weather is a two-speed phenom: Wet from November through May and dry from June through October.

Of course, when I say “wet” it generally means snow as water takes a solid form during the colder months and at Park City's 7,000 feet altitude. But it's not all snow all the time; we get plenty of beautiful sunny days too and there is rarely a snowy day when the sun doesn 't show up! This said, it pretty much works like clockwork; in the past 30 days, we haven't seen one drop of water coming from the sky and the last serving we received, on May 27, was freezing snow!

There are summer and fall days when we're praying to see some rain. We feel dry, dusty and could use a good natural shower, but this said, I'd never trade Park City weather for anything else in the world, so don't expect to see me move to Thailand any time soon!
