As usual, this is a mixed bag of souvenir postcard photos, and attempts to be artsy.

Very interesting photos. Are descriptions available for those of us who have never been there?

The six-pointed star in the window of the church or cathedral is interesting.

Not really. I don't take notes. I take hundreds of photos in two weeks - too many to list.

St. George, on Utah's southern border, was Brigham Young's summer home, at a higher altitude than SLC. Some of the photos are from his home there. Others from a settlers' home.

There's a "religious quarter" in SLC. All photos except the deer were there. We wanted to visit a prison, but it was closed... and there were deer on the lawn. The trek of the original settlers, from the Mississippi to the Great Salt Lake, was pretty terrible, and now a big part of their legend.

Thank you, as you have seen I take hundreds of photos in a couple of weeks myself. Actually I don't take notes either, but sometimes I photograph the existing plaques with explanations, as you may have seen on my photo-essays.

I don't know

asz

never been married, but, to have multiple allied women pooling their resources to exhaust yours, all with Gods blessin

sounds like someone bin messin with the buttonheads and stalks, of cow pattie growths

I met a long term friend of opposite attraction, who showed me some thrills in MOAB Utah

a place designed for one such as myself

sky diving, unbelievable red canyons, and an adrenaline junkies top ten list destination all in a state of our nation where you can marry as many times as you nwish to multiply ones hell, or bliss, but I digress.

not soon enuff for most, but, oh well

where else can you rent quads, side by sides, jeeps, and hummers, to tour the rugged terrain and go a little insane.

I rented a quad while getting a Hummer, and sang along to a happy song.

Highly wreckomend if that's your cup of T

Zion National Park, The Canyonlands, Arches, etc, are amazing parks, that produce drive

There will be a bunch more. This was a two-week trip.

Hélène and I have one more trip from the Northeast to Yuma, but our son has moved to Houston, so we don't know beyond this Autumn.

I like the room with all those antiques. Were those chairs arranged in a circle for a reason? Was this a meeting room?

Yes. We like old houses and furnishings. We'll see the Pabst House (Milwaukee brewer, but not a baseball player) later on...
