Jennifer Ross of the South Salt Lake Fire Department carries Kaytie Acey, 10, to safety during a bomb explosion drill at Mill Creek Elementary school on Wednesday. Right, Trevor Sheets, 11, and Kaytie Acey lie amid the debris from the simulated blast, waiting for rescuers. About 30 volunteers were evacuated by ambulances and UTA buses, and transported to St. Mark's Hospital. Many of the student "victims" were hearing impaired. St. Mark's Hospital conducted Wednesday's disaster drill with the help of multiple fire departments and emergency medical agencies.
Weekend rescuers
Between a horse, kittens and five baby ducks trapped, rescuers were kept busy but saved all the animals.

In search of a Memorial Day column, I wandered into Memory Grove (who said columnists can't grasp the obvious?) and as I walked by the various war monuments, I came upon the best-looking structure there: the Meditation Chapel, which might have been transplanted straight from Athens.
