The nice lady at Murray Park gave me detailed directions and I thought I’d pass them along.  If you enter the park from 330 East Vine, pass the pool, and park in the next parking lot, there is a nice shady area near the playground for us to meet. 
See you there tomorrow from 5-7 pm!
 

Please come if you can? Why?
1. Because I’m going to be there. Isn’t that reason enough?
2. Because those who choose not to come that don’t have a pre-existing condition (living out of state, pregnancy related madness, fear of playground equipment, etc…) will be charged bigger membership fees next year. You haven’t heard [...]

It’s new…do you like it?
Well, okay, now it’s a week old, the new look here at Blog Segullah. The template we had been using, which I had adapted from Juicy when the blog launched, was looking a bit cluttered and drab from all my add-ons and color changes. And, it became apparent during [...]

Because we at Segullah love you, our readers, we are running a contest: leave a comment in this thread, and we will send two random commenters a free Consecration issue of Segullah. Yes, you can read it online, but there’s something so solid about the printed word. Also, the ethereal Consecration art adds to [...]

Angela Hallstrom’s debut novel, Bound on Earth, hit the market this week. I just bought a copy on Amazon. Here’s why you should whip out your credit card and do the same:
1. The writing is skillful and artistic, a true literary novel. I’ve never seen anything like it in Mormon lit (although I’m no expert–I [...]

Come join us as we explore the nuances of consecration: we consecrate ourselves as Relief Society Presidents and Primary pianists; in Mozambique, Idaho, Ecuador, and Nauvoo; as exhausted pregnant mothers and bewildered missionaries. It’s all in the Fall/Winter 2007 issue of Segullah, which you can read here.
