One reason to love Utah. . .

So...I will forever be loyal to Missouri, but there is ONE thing that I have come to love about Utah. I'm sure you all have heard the story of the locusts in Salt Lake?? No?? I'll tell you : The summer of 1848 there were SWARMS and SWARMS of locusts invading the valley, the Saints prayed and prayed and in return seagulls came and ate and ate and ate. When they had had their fill they would drink some water, thow them up, and go eat some more. As a result, the Saint's crops were saved.......I see seagulls here all the time, everytime I do, I am reminded of the love that Heavenly Father has for his children and his willingness and power to answer our prayers.
