 It's almost like you've been living with a family member and they were an annoyance until you realize they're going to die or that you come to know them in a way you hadn't before. And that's where we are with Great Salt Lake. Great Salt Lake has not been revered. It has been viewed as wasted water from beginning with the colonizer Brigham Young. Great Salt Lake smells. If you go out there and smile, you do not have white teeth. You have brine flies in your teeth.
