...parked in a lot beside two other cars, both of which had Utah plates, and followed a path to a posted overlook. I had been here before, as a devout 14-year-old on a church-led bus tour. Now, a more skeptical adult, I wanted to follow the Mormon trail again, traveling (in the order of settlement) from Missouri, Joseph Smith's abortive Zion, back east to Nauvoo, Ill., the first true Mormon city, then west along the route of exile to Salt Lake City, Utah.

The first victims in his path were two gay friends in Minnesota, a Chicago businessman and a New Jersey cemetery caretaker.

In Alexandrov's factory fantasy The Bright Path (1940), workers sing, "Whether you work a machine or break through rocks/ A wonderful dream reveals itself and calls you forward." Naive, yes, but ferociously pertinent for the Russian audience--propaganda in its noblest form...
...yard. Over and over, I tried to go around Friday, but she continued to block me, pushing me back with her chest. Frustrated, I began to cry. My mother had been watching Friday's unusual behavior, and as she approached she saw the reason Friday was blocking my path: a nest of copperhead snakes. Rottweilers have saved many more lives than they have taken. PATTY OXLEY-LEONARD Houston...
