Today we went back to Temple Square to hear the Choir in a weekly broadcast called Music and the Spoken Word. It was held in the Conference Center, which holds over 20,000 people. Only about 2000 were there. I have listened to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir doing Christmas music on CDs and TV, but I can tell you it ain't nothin' like hearing them live. Between the Choir and Orchestra there are over 500 musicians. It wasn't the volume, it was the power of this group. You felt this music as much as hearing it. They archive the 1/2 hour programs on their website, if you want to watch one, their website is, http://www.mormontabernaclechoir.org/
Here is a picture.
Kicked back the rest of the day after getting groceries and gas. We're headed to Glendale, UT tomorrow. About 300 miles south between Zion and Bryce. Its a dinky town in the middle of nothing, so we felt we needed to stock up. The campground is Bauers, actually a horse farm. They indicate they have internet, we'll see. If you don't see anything for a while, you'll know why.
Here are some links to videos that Lynn uploaded from Yellowstone:

Hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend.
