About a year ago, I posted about the movie The Other Side of Heaven and that there was a sequel in production. Well, it's being released at least in Utah this weekend. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8174450/?pf_rd_m=A2FGELUUNOQJNL&pf_rd_p=2413b25e-e3f6-4229-9efd-599bb9ab1f97&pf_rd_r=AYXKSA99461BTRDPZ89J&pf_rd_s=right-2&pf_rd_t=15061&pf_rd_i=homepage&ref_=hm_otw_t2 I'm

I tried to watch this show--the 2 lead actors, Michael Sheen and David Tennant are a couple of my favorite actors. But so far I haven't finished much of it. I've had 2 kids of mine say how good it is and another friend said she loved it so I don't know what to think. There is virtually so much stuff to watch on the major services and other places it's just overwhelming.

I think I've mentioned here before, my cousin Maxine Conder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxine_Conder She had quite a career as a Nurse in the Navy. And I'm sure that she's my only relative who appears in Wikepedia. But she's only 93 and probably won't be around long enough to get as old as MacCene Grimmett is now. (and don't you love the spelling of her name?)

Yes I moved back to Utah in 2015 and have pretty much regretted it since, mostly because of the awful winters we have. I've never resigned or whatever the steps are mostly because I just don't care enough. The thing that puzzles me is how they got my name and address. I have 3 kids, none active and I'm sure that not only wouldn't they tell anyone, they know where I live but don't know the exac

I'm home here tonight, with I guess a summer cold and just not feeling very good. I hear a knock at the door, 2nd floor apartment. I was tempted to not answer the door since I’ve had almost no contact with “GUESS WHO”? Yes, it’s Bishop Teeter and his counselor and they were all nice and invited me to church. The last time I had any church contact was at least 20 years ago when I was i

My oldest sister, who is 85 this year, sent me an email to see if I saw anything about this older lady, Sister Grimmet. Sis had known her in the same stake, I think, before she moved to Mesa AZ (my sister), about 20 years ago. I'm not sure how she heard about it, but by googling her name, I found this link in the Provo Daily Herald. I like some of stories she tells. I also have absolutely no d

Anyone used Itunes to just store your music collection? Apple introduced it back in 2001 and I started using Ipod's and Iphones but haven't really done much collecting for a while. And Itunes has been on every computer I've had in that period. So today I got my 2TB Seagate external hard drive out of a storage box this week and guess what, most of the music I had there is gone. Not sure what ha

That's very sad and yet entertaining. Sounds like that young man knew what he wanted and where he was going. Cancer changed his plans.

I've loved Jonathan Kellerman since his first work and have read most of his stuff since the beginning. I read The Wedding Guest when it first came out and was less impressed than some of his work and I can't remember why. I just requested it from the local library to see what I missed the first time.

Here's said link: https://utahutes.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=7727 I don't do well at deciding at things like "Is he related to Paul Dunn" It says he went to Cottonwood High in SL County, which is probably close to where PHD lived. Who knows.

....do you really feel comfortable when all 15 of you are in a meeting in the temple or dedicating one, all wearing a bright white suit, including shoes, ties etc? Also, since Monson left us, who gets to ride in the armored Audi limo in parades etc? I think I know the answer.

I was at the same speech with RFK and the curmudgeon, Ernest L Wilkinson. Ernie tried to sort of ignore him as they entered together and IIRC, he got a pretty good reception from the crowd, which was unexpected by ELW. It was a great experience.

I’m guessing that many of you who post here know who Robert F. Kennedy was but who weren’t born before he was assassinated, June 6 1968. I was one of those rare Mormon Democrats who supported him and his family. (yeah, even Teddy) I think since my parents did. I was in Sandy and was getting ready to turn in my missionary forms. The night of the 5th I was out with friends, high school gu

I live in downtown Salt Lake City, sort of, and it was Utah Pride parade last weekend. I used the UBER app and let him drop me off kind of the middle of the route. It had been raining for days but finally it was nice that day. I lasted about an hour since I've had a cold for what seems like the last 6-7 months, and called UBER again and strangely enough the same guy showed up. My cost for the rid

I use the DesNews app on my phone and don't remember for sure why. It has local coverage and of course, my favorite, obituaries. Today, it also has Church "News" which is so far from news it's almost straight out of next month's Ensign https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900073538/watch-sister-wendy-nelson-heavens-opened-president-nelson.html Not sure how any "news" p

She's getting ready to be in a local production of Beauty and The Beast and likely has a backup part. Her mom did that for years and there's no way this one wouldn't have gotten involved. I went last Christmas to see her in The Nutcracker and it brought back lots of memories. I'm almost sure it's not the Provo Temple but not sure what part of the costumes it represents. Grandpa doesn't ha

This documentary mostly applies to people in Utah, sort of, who are familiar with Dr Kristen Riess and Maggie Snyder, PA-C,. They and the Holy Cross Hospital here in SLC were true heroes in the AIDS battle, starting in the mid 80s. It applies to the church; just wait until you listen to Rustle's talk about AIDS and of course, Boyd. AIDS came to Utah in the mid 80's and it was tough battle for

I've had lots of posts removed at my request. Just go to the post (after you've posted it) and at the bottom line, Options: Reply•Quote•Follow Topic•Report click on the word report and it opens a box where you can request that it be deleted. It's also a good idea if you give a reason to the monitor, but not mandatory. Sometimes takes them a while to get to it but it's better than al

I'm being too lazy but also just spent an hour looking for rental apartments here in Salt Lake area that don't fall into the "luxury" price range. I need to give notice by this coming weekend and be out of here by end of June. Moving is awful and I don't even have that much stuff. I've narrowed down a couple of places. One is out in sandy, which would put me closer to 2 of my kids

I've never lived there, but I have relatives who live in the Tremonton, Garland, Elwood area on I15/I84. I've been there a few times to visit my brother and his wife in their 80's and they quite like it (except for the unbearable cold) and the only place in Utah that doesn't have that is St. George. It seems clean, very farm-y. I don't know about your other requirements.

When I lived in Las Vegas, there was a drive in theater about 3 blocks from my condo, and a few times in the 4 years I lived there, I went to the the movie. A couple of times I went alone and a couple I went with some friends from work. When I was alone I slept through a good portion. According to the local ads, it's still open in the same place. They always had double features and I usual
