Snow Sculpture for FHE


Snow sculpture FHE, originally uploaded by Lee Bracken.

The snow today was wet and just the right texture to build snowmen or other snow creations. For FHE we all worked from a bucket of snow on a cookie sheet to make our favorite sculpture.

Library Dedication

Sister Patricia T Holland joins with her husband Elder Jeffrey R Holland at the ribbon cutting ceremony of the new county library facility in Enterprise. The ribbon cutting followed a nice program and formal dedication that took place at the Enterprise High School Auditorium. It was a fun event to be part of and a historic day for our little community.

Utah State Capitol


State Capitol, originally uploaded by Lee Bracken.

This has become a familiar meeting place for me. I spent all day here today meeting with Homeland officials regarding some FEMA matters affecting the City and with State water leaders to review pending legislation. I got a special treat today with a tour or the State Emergency Operations center and the Governors adjacent control room. It was an interesting day.

One of my Little Buddies


I have been doing a lot of experimenting with several websites, many of which share data or cross post information and photos. You may have noticed different older photos or posts somewhat out of context. All of the recent activity has been part of a learning process. Among the sites I have been exploring and testing besides blogger are: facebook, multiply, flickr, and youtube along with some expanded Blackberry functionality. Most of them baffle my aging mind and things aren't as intuitive as they used to be but I am starting to find some advantages and usefulness to several of them. I intend to narrow my use and try to post more frequently once I find comfort in the various options. Right now I am liking MULTIPLY. See my page at: www.leebracken.multiply.com

Family at New Years

The whole family came home on New Years Eve. It was a great weekend as there was lots of good food, games to play, some went snowboarding, others went golfing, still others went shopping. It was a great time for all of the cousins to get reacquainted.
