First, sorry Seafarin' Man, it's more Utah talk!
Monday was a beautiful hot, clear day. I say hot though that is a relative term but it did reach around 90°F. Today, Wednesday, we have snow down to the benches. It is even now trying hard to decide on thunder and hail or patches of blue sky and sun. The mountains around my town are still quite green though now they also sport the beautiful fall colors of red and yellow. My oldest and I took a quick drive up one of the local canyons on Sunday and I am sure glad we did because now there is a layer of snow. If only I had a decent camera and had thought to grab it on Sunday! As the saying goes, if you don't like our weather, just wait five minutes!
Another sign I'm in Utah? Yesterday on the radio the news announcer speaking of the Tsunami that hit Samoa reported there were 24 members of the LDS church confirmed dead and that all the missionaries were alive and accounted for. Hmmm, not sure if that means the tsunami was targeting Mormons or maybe those were just the Mormons not current on their tithing? God's wrath and all. Imagine my surprise when I heard the national news report deaths of non-Mormons! I'm just sayin...........



Notice how green the base of the mountain is!
Got ski's?

BTW, this morning's paper says two missionaries are still unaccounted for so they still didn't get their slanted news right.
And yup, the Samoans are the core of the BYU team; and the BYU team is a great place for Samoans! High schools in Utah develop them for football careers.
And the snow at Alta is still the best in the world! Be there soon...
Rated for the weather.
My experience with Mormons--- and I am certain God
thinks the same way---
is that they are too bland and boring
to kill...
