The lights were brilliant last night as Janene and I got to spend the evening at the Grand America Hotel. The night started with a dinner with all the managers from Firetrol. Our boss has sponsored this every year for the last three years. For one night a year, we get to see how the other half lives with a night in a suite at the hotel and a fancy dinner.
After dinner, Janene and I went for a walk downtown. We got to watch the news broadcast at Channel 2, the skaters at the Gallivan Center, and then on to Temple Square and all the lights. ( well... not all the lights. By the time we got to Temple Square, they had started turning off the lights)
By the time we were done, they were all off, and only the lights on the Temple remained. We awoke this morning to freshly fallen snow and the excitement of Christmas in the air.
We finished with some shopping at The Gateway and breakfast at Lambs Grill. It is hard to believe that Lambs Grill hasn't changed a bit since I first went there for a milkshake with my grandmother when I was ten or eleven years old. We had a wonderful break from the hectic days we are used to having.

Sounds like a fun evening for you two.
A fun and romantic get-away! Just what the doctor ordered for the two of you! We got to go to the Tab Concert last Friday night and see the lights at Temple Square. It was a wonderful evening as well. Diana
