We are finally up with the times, in UTAH! We have 2 in-n-out's in the Salt Lake Valley! After livng here off and on for 19 years, we have been much anticipating this opening, along with thousands of others. Mind you the Draper, In-n-out opened on Thursday November 19th, and the wait for a hamburger at lunch and rush time was 2 1/2 hours. We drove by on Friday night the 20th and there were only about 150 cars in the drive through, or might I say down the street and around the corners into neigborhoods with workers directing traffic. Luckily for them, they were not in typical Utah Snow storm, however quite Chilly at 29 degrees. So Me and the girls went to see New Moon Sat the 21st and when it was over I was texted by my cute Nephew Chris, that he was at In-n-out and we could cut in line with them.. Mind you we jumped at the opportunity. 20 minutes later we were sitting eating the infamous Cheeseburger that makes me and my girls so happy! So in 1 week we have eatin' at In-n-out 3 times and have not had to travel far or wait 2 hours!!! These are Happy Day's!
