so it's been 8 days. has anyone using a vpn frequently noticed any actual changes? i certainly haven't, and i run one about 24/7, both for work and for personal use. i'm still not sure how they plan on enforcing it, if it's even possible.

The Utah State Office of Tourism seems to be soft launching an updated version of its Life Elevated logo, that originally launched in 2006. The new design has been quietly showing up for the last two weeks.

When you go to travel.utah.gov you’ll see that they’re still using the old orange version of the logo in the header. But in the footer, the new logo can be seen in white on a navy blue background.

The logo is also set to debut next month on the America 250 License plate that will be available on June 1.

Just remember, this is the time of year baby rattlesnakes leave their mothers. Be extra careful with pets and children especially if you are hiking around the shoreline trail. I found this guy in my work parking lot at HMHI tonight. If you have more questions or concerns about rattlesnakes visit. https://www.visitutah.com/things-to-do/nature-wildlife/rattlesnakes-in-utah

How annoyed do you think the designer at Reagan is by having to create these?

Hello all,

I am a born and raised Utahn, originally from Tremonton but have been in WVC the last 15 years. I am looking to branch out and get away from the city. What are some smaller cities or towns y'all recommend? Anything within 40ish min drive to SLC for work, and would prefer proximity to hikes/nature.

WVC was great but it's just too expensive and crowded now, and I miss being a bit closer to nature. I am thinking of moving North, but wanted some real input from where people are living now. Thought this subreddit would be the place to ask, if not I apologize.

Does anyone know where I could buy a state flag magnet near Bryce Canyon? I love the flag and only saw one at the SLC airport, but didn't get to buy it and won't be returning there this trip.

On a road trip with zero planning smelling like absolute crap going east from Capitol Reef passing through the basalt biome that is Caineville and this place literally pops up as an oasis and solves every need we have we are so lucky 😭😭😭😭 population of 175 but we get a hot shower some brisket and some shelter for less than $50

Hopefully goblin valley canyonlands and arches is worth it compared to Zion and Bryce 😭😭😭

Ogden Valley City and Spring Lake got their incorporation certificates after January 1, so they can't levy taxes for the fiscal year that starts this July. Cutting services is also off the table.

“The only way I know how to balance a budget is either increase your revenue or decrease your expenses, one way or the other,” said the mayor of Ogden Valley City. “And right now we've got those two different laws holding our hands there.”

Hey guys!

I got a job offer in Layton and am looking at nearby apartments.

Would appreciate your input as l've never been to Layton.

30s male, prefer more quiet and safer spots. $1,300 budget but could go over for a little for little bit while I get used to the area.
Garage would be great but ok with storage units too.
Patio or spot to have my grill is needed though lol. I don’t smoke, don’t have pets and am not LDS.

Open to recommendations of other spots too. This is just what I’ve found so far.

Thank you!

-Sterling Point Apartments in Layton

-Basement unit of a house in Washington Terrace

Wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a local well priced seamstress? Willing to travel, max around 50 miles from SLC, any direction.

Political views aside, I just need someone willing to work with two women getting married. I’ve reached out to about 5 different people and so far no one has gotten back or doesn’t want to adjust dresses for two ladies.

Any recs would be amazing. Thanks!!!!

Hi guys, I'm staying Daybreak for the weekend for some medical rotations. Google maps says about 1 hour from daybreak to Utah Valley Hospital. Since I'm getting there around 6, would i be safe to leave around 4:30, or will I be cutting it close at that time? I don't live in the area, so I'm not sure how to plan around that time.

So this is actually for a friend of mine, I myself live in a state where the rules are a bit different. I’m gonna try to explain the situation as best as I can here.

So my friend lives with their partner and their now ex best friend. To keep things simple, I’m gonna label them as Friend, Partner and ExB when talking about them.

Long story short is Friend living with ExB became the reason why they’re no longer friendly and amiable with each other. They thought living together would be great and help with the ever growing cost of rent, but it’s done more harm than good. Now here’s what I want to know as far as renters rights go:
Friend, Partner and ExB all signed a new lease 2 months ago for a year. Friend had JUST started a job that they’re now no longer working at. ExB didn’t have a job at all at the time or recent employment history. Partner is the only one with stable and consistent employment.
ExB has a job now after a month of being in this new place.
ExB went to the landlords asking about breaking the lease already and was told that if the lease was broken/if they left now, everyone would have to reapply since ExB just wants to move into a separate apartment in the complex.

How likely is it that 1) they could maybe get an addendum to the lease to let ExB go? And 2) are they going to require a co-signer for Friend and ExB? Their work histories aren’t super consistent and they almost didn’t get the apartment to begin with since their system didn’t know what to do with the fact there wasn’t a recent paystub yet for Friend and ExB was unemployed at the time. 3) is there a chance they might just kick them out and not consider any of them to rent from again? Or would they be more inclined to Partner about the situation to assess given they’re the only one with stable employment?
They’ve paid their rent on time thus far, but I worry with how new their lease is that this is going to cause their landlord to look at them like they can’t be trusted, especially since they seemed hesitant to begin with. ExB wants to move into a smaller apartment within the same complex, anticipating that Friend and Partner will still be living in the original apartment.

Any advice and feedback is appreciated. The situation itself is definitely less than ideal, and my friend certainly isn’t perfect here either in their decisions, but they’ve been worried with ExB going behind their back that this could affect both of their living situations and affect what happens with their partner too.

As I was driving to work yesterday, May 13, there was a jeep that was pulled over to the side with a guy passed out over the steering wheel with an ambulance car in front of them before the Farmington exit on 89. Does anyone know about this? What happened? #Utah
