It's Pioneer Day today, which is a holiday unique to Utah. It's the day when everybody gets patriotic and puts up their American flags to commemorate the 1847 arrival of Mormons in Utah, which was then a part of Mexico because the Mormons had to flee the US to escape religious persecution. Makes perfect sense to me.Anyway, here are a couple of old photos from my childhood that I came across. You probably think that this was just a cowboy costume I was wearing, with a couple of toy pistols. But you'd be wrong. For I killed a man in Reno, just to watch him die.
