Utah Capital building

I had the opportunity Monday to visit the Utah Capital building with Mom. We wandered around and had a docent lead us for some of the time. We visited the House of Representatives room, got close to the Guv's office and then toured the Supreme Court room. The court now meets in the Matheson courthouse downtown, but the old courtroom smells of leather and feels very solemn! The funniest part of it is a miniature stoplight that sits on top of the speakers stand where those addressing the court would stand. The light (supposedly) told the presenters when they should stop! Cool.

Here's a shot of the refurbished building.
