The mountains are 2 hours away

We had some friends (non-members) just move to Utah from Colorado. They moved here because they said the marijuana there had made it "unlivable." He said they were always planning to be here for 2 years for work then move due to some of the same concerns. But since being here they've decided to stay and they're building a house in Mountain Green. They're telling all their non-mormon friends that they've found "God's Secret on Earth (they're big skiers too)"

You could buy a cozy little shack in West Valley and feel right at home.

If your wife has issues with Denver or Utah it is likely a wife problem not the other way around.
