RC WILLEY Grand Opening GIVEAWAY

Over 70 years ago, Rufus Call (RC) Willey began delivering appliances door-to-door in his red pickup truck.

Now you can shop RC Willey in store and still expect that same great service as they strive to be the best home furnishings company in America. Tomorrow (April 1, 2015 - no joke) is the Grand Opening of a beautiful store in Orem, Utah.

 This is the beautiful mall entrance where you can see 2 waterfalls (they appear as one from this perspective). 

The skylight windows were kept from a Nordstrom store that was here previously. It adds so much beauty to this part of the store.

 The pillars here are planked with rare reclaimed oak which adds amazing natural character.

 Throughout the store, certain areas are specially designed to appeal to certain shoppers.

EXAMPLES:

• Youth bedroom has selected music and a slight bubble gum scent
• Lifestyles Gallery (for progressive customers) has upbeat styles, special music, and a bamboo smell

There are traditional French manufactured heirloom pieces, TVs, recliners, sofas, beds, mattresses, appliances, decor, fitness equipment, flooring...pretty much anything you need for your house/apartment/condo/room.

There is also a cafe where you can sit to enjoy your RC Willey hotdogs and other treats.

 The part that might get some shoppers the most excited is the Clearance/scratch and dent/discounted new items section. The mission statement of the store is to create a positive experience and atmosphere for every customer that comes in with expertly trained employees.

To get you excited to check out the new store, RC Willey has given me a $50 gift card to give away to one reader. Enter on the rafflecopter below:

GREEN RIVER

We left Goblin Valley State Park and drove to the city of Green River (population about 900). Seriously small stuff. What's in Green River? I've heard they have the best watermelons around. So I bought some.

What next? Green River State Park is mostly a camping site for those rafting the River. No hikes or anything exciting. We were tired so we decided to stay the night, but not in the state park.

 The best free camping spot...Swasey's Beach. (Not THAT Swayze!)

This spot is designated as recreational access with no permits or fees for camping or boating. The sand is nice and soft to sleep on and the water might be the brownest/muddiest water you've ever seen (but still great to jump in to cool off). Be aware of the strong current. This is also a great place for a wonderful view of the stars in the sky at night. 

DIRECTIONS:

Go East on Mail Street. Turn left (North) at Hastings Road. Look to the left at mile 2.4, you'll see a marker where the Spanish Trail once crossed the River where it was the only place to safely cross for hundreds of miles. The beach is at mile 9.5. The road is paved all of the way except for the last hundred yards or so. 

If you keep going on the dirt road (it gets pretty rocky/bumpy), you can see the Old Stone House at mile 12 (many say it's haunted), petroglyphs located on a low rock ledge at mile 17.8 (depictions of big horn sheep, elk, and snakes), and at 18 miles, look towards the south to see the famous Nefertiti formation. That's the end of the road. From there, you may hike, ride horseback, or bike further into the Lower Gray Canyon, but you have to return the way you came to go back to town.

GET SOME

You can bet if I need some guns or ammo in the near future, I'm for sure going to buy it from this place:

Get some!
