I grew up visiting Saltair III, but my connections to the original Saltair are limited to my grandparents’ experiences. Still, it occupies a huge spot in my heart and mind. I’m working on a post about the substation building.

Me, a 20 year old guy with no real connection to Saltair started crying. The Great Saltair is my favorite piece of history. I have spent the past three years collecting post cards and whatever else I can in hopes of some day having an entire collection of Saltair-related products. My collection is small, but I cherish every 70 year old post card I have.

It is sad to see these last two remnants of Saltair leave. I wish I were a millionaire, then I would do everything I could to restore and rebuild the Saltair.

In fact their are a lot of
Strange and spooky stories about Ashby Snow the last owner of Saltair. I have many stories I would love to tell the public about. If you are interest please just drop me a note and I will get back to you.

You’re one of my favorite authors, Clint! It’s exciting to see you branch out from the blogs and newspapers to a published book. You really should figure out a way to make a living at this if at all possible! Make it your full-time job. :)
