Not Pete Murray. Turned 100 yesterday and still going strong.
Has to be a record for a DJ.

Surely it’s a disc for a DJ.

I’ve just heard that John Stapleton has died.

A big Blue, I believe.

R. I. P. John.

Correct.. (Utah is one of the most beautiful places on earth).

Sundance Mountain Resort, a year-round mountain destination located in the Wasatch Range near Provo, known for its skiing, outdoor recreation, and artistic roots under founder Robert Redford. Visitors can enjoy activities such as skiing, snowboarding, hiking, biking, and zip-lining. The resort also features lodging, dining, art workshops, and a unique community atmosphere, providing a secluded mountain experience close to Salt Lake City.

I have to agree about Utah being a very beautiful State.

From Zion Canyon to Bryce Canyon, it’s absolutely stunning.

We visited Sundance in 2007, and saw the statue of Harry Longbaugh, AKA The Sundance Kid.

Yes Utah is a beautiful State, often overlooked! My uncle had a place in Deer Valley in Park City - visited a couple of times & what a place! You can see Sundance Mountain from Deer Valley! Park City is 45 min drive up from Salt Lake City & around 7,000 ft! USA winter Olympic team train in Park City which is fascinating to watch in the summer months! Loads of fantastic golf courses around the Wasatch Mountains - the ball travels miles . Also great base to travel to beautiful places such as Yellowstone National Park & Tetons - within 5 hours drive - both lovely places!

What a character he was.
