2015 Where’s the most patriotic pack o’ people in Utah? If you didn’t notice last month, Sugar House held the biggest fireworks show in the Salt Lake Valley in Sugar House. BYU’s ‘Stadium of Fire’ is the by far the biggest booms for your buck and always sells out because the show features hours of […]
2015 Random phone call this week: “Hi, Babs, I’m from Kiplinger Magazine in Washington and I’m doing a story on senior citizens.” “Cheesh, I’m not that old,” I said to myself. Long story short, the reporter was investigating where the best cities were to retire to and she wanted to know about Salt Lake City. […]

2015 Twice a year my wife and I go to San Francisco for business and pleasure. We’ve been doing this for years and so we know a) if we stay in a hotel we have to pay a ton to park a rental car; b) finding a parking space is hell in the city and […]
2015 Salt Lake City proper doesn’t have many museums but the few we do have are pretty great.

2015 Utah is the second driest state in the Union. No, I don’t mean booze, I mean moisture. Although we’re known for having the greatest snow on earth, the airy flakes don’t melt out to much water. You may have heard that Gov. Jerry Brown of California has signed legislation to reduce monthly water use […]
2015 If you don’t golf then click on! I’m a golfer because my dad was a golfer and when we moved from New York to Arizona we lived with the new Tucson Country Club in the back yard. The course was a never ending source of play during the day and discovery as darkness fell […]
2015 Since global warming appears to have landed in Utah this spring of 2015, we are going to have to get used to changes.

2015 If you went to the St. Patrick’s Day parade at the Gateway March 14th… No, strike that. If you are SOBER enough to remember the St. Patrick’s Day parade at the Gateway you’ll remember seeing many–Great Dane dogs walking with their humans down Rio Grande Street. This is the first time that the dogs […]
