Brenna, my mother adores your book for Morgan, but she disagrees about Scottsbluff except in the spring when the wildflowers come out.

But then again, she grew up in Scottsbluff.

Well, like I said, I was there in spring/early summer. So maybe I  was just there at the right time of year. All I know is that it was absolutely gorgeous when I was there. :)

And I'm glad the book was a hit--I had a blast making it!

Obviously, I haven't been to the US of A... but I would happily match out west in Australia to some of the most boring places alive.  Particularly a little town called Premer, or any within about 100km of it.  Or further west.

Bradford is an infamous hellhole. Largely due to rampant racial tensions I guess.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Ok, what time would be good to arrive in SLC? I can get 10:40 am, 10:50 pm, or 7:53 pm. Just let me know when would be good EUOL/Tage.

man, I hate to admit it, but I'm kinda jealous. I'd like to be there when Gemm arrives in Utah.

Oh my, I don't expect some red carpet or anything. Maybe a mad scientist to rush me off to his lab and experiment on me.

Gemm,

What are the exact dates you will be here?  We're trying to plan the trip to go hiking.  Will you be around that following Saturday?  If not, we're thinking of a Wednesday-Thursday trip.  (Leaving late Wednesday, so people who work don't have to take that day off.)

Everyone is invited.

The fish will be carried on a pike, much like a military unit's banner.
