PLUS: Why Utah’s rents are rising faster than everyone else’s, Sartre is wrong and animal shelters are overrun by COVID pets. 😿
Good morning, my little sunbeams! It looks like we’re in for a fair-weathered week! ☀️ 42 – 81° in Logan ☀️ 58 – 81° in Salt Lake City ☀️ 62 – 95° in St. George Fall is objectively the best season. It’s not too hot and not too cold; pumpkin spice is everywhere; and you can wear sweaters all the time. I particularly love seeing the leaves change colors — I particularly like driving through Trapper’s loop up by Ogden to see all the leaves. Tell me: Where do you think is the best place to go see the fall colors in Utah? Also on our minds: Why Utah’s rents are rising faster than everyone else’s, Sartre is wrong and animal shelters are overrun by COVID pets. 😿 |

He also has an interesting background. He was raised in orthodox Judaism, learned to speak various languages including Arabic as his interest in brokering peace in the Middle East developed, and he has a deep fascination with Utah and Latter-day Saints. Most importantly, he has a deep and abiding passion for the U.S. Constitution and recently came to BYU to inspire and charge the audience with saving our country’s founding document.
