[UPHPU] RE: Geek Lunch :: Nominate a Location!

[jtaber]

I was also about to suggest Thanksgiving Point which makes it much
easier on SLC and even north folks and not too bad for Utah County folks
and parking is easy and it's not that crowded and has good ice cream and
free wifi if anyone wants to stick around and hack (it is a Friday).
Another alternative is Lehi - around the Wal-Mart which is another 3-5
miles north of AF though the left turn southbound can be real nasty.
The other issue is driving time from the interstate to the destination -
a quick on/off  can cut about 10-15 mins of drive time.

Where are most Utah County folks coming from ?
