Salt Lake 2002
   
                                                                       
  Enjoy! 1 week before the Olympics near Rice-Eccles aka Olympic Stadium.
You can see the Olympic Cauldron in the background center.
The torch run in Salt Lake City in front of my office. Torch again. Olympic Stadium at the University of Utah. A decorated building also at the U of U. Look at the size of that hockey player on the side of a building in
downtown Salt lake City.
This pic shows an ice-skater on the side of the Mormon
Church Office Building and also shows the Moromon temple on
the right and the foothills east of Salt Lake in the back.
This is the Key Bank Building also downtown. This is Abravanel Hall, downtown SLC. And this is what they all looked like together. This was the view
coming into the city from the airport.
Salt Lake showing off its "cowboy and Indian" past. Oooo..... a mountain man! Some more "wild west" junk. This is the sun in front of the Salt Palace Convention Center. This was
part of the Chihuly 2002 exhibit by renowned artist Dale Chihuly.
Olympic rings on the top of a mountain north-east of downtown
Salt Lake City. You could see them from 15 miles away.
This is the rings lit up at night. A view from the top of the Triad Center looking down
on Olympic Square in the middle of the city.
This is outside the luge/bobsled track at the Utah
Olympic Winter Sports Park at Park City, Utah
The ski jumps at the Utah Olympic Winter Sports Park. World flags on display. The Delta Center aka Salt Lake Olympic Ice Sheet. The buildings in Salt Lake were lit up at night. A view of downtown at night. A giant globe at Bud World. Inside Bud World. This is the line to get into the Medals Plaza for a free concert. The Olympic Caluldron at dusk. Salt Lake City at night. At the end of every night there was a
fireworks display over the city.
The closing ceremonies had the biggest
fireworks display I've ever seen.
This was actualy taken 2 weeks after the Olympics. The weather
was mostly good during the games, but this is what can happen in
Salt Lake. Look how deep it is on Bill's roof and in the street.
