Utah State Capital Building

Today we went with a group of friends on a tour to the Utah State Capital Building and the Daughters of Utah Pioneers Museum. I have always wanted to go there especially now that the renovations are mostly completed. It was really beautiful and very interesting.

Inside the rotunda.


Italian marble lions replaced the concrete ones in the renovation.
Look at the beautiful marble wall panels that were cut and pieced together in wonderful patterns. Katrina said it looked like she was in a tornado.
I am a member of the DUP, how about you?? (Daughters of Utah Pioneers)
We were VERY quiet and respectful in the museum, NOT!! But we had a lot of fun. There were 5 moms and 17 children. The patrons were very patient and understanding.

Thanks Em for arranging a wonderful outing!!
