Utah is really a beautiful place to live.  We went to school at the U, moved away, came back, left for a long time, and came back and stayed!  Eleven years this May.  This time of year (February) drives me nuts.  

The legislature is in session, and there is no end of stupidity from them.  The winter started early, was quite cold even in November, and we have had several depressing inversions, with filthy air and no sunshine for weeks on end.  

Now, there is a rumor in the Salt Lake Tribune of a challenger to Jim Matheson, the ONLY Democrat in Utah's Congressional delegation.  And even worse, the last name of the challenger is Romney.
