Memory Grove (Salt Lake City)
Memory Grove, formerly known as Memory Park and sometimes called Memory Grove Park, is a park in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. Established as a war memorial at the mouth of City Creek Canyon in 1924, the park "spawned a long tradition of support and involvement by private, civil, fraternal, military, and political organizations, and its evolution over the span of five generations reflects Utah's changing values along with her participation in world events", according to William G. Love of ''Utah Historical Quarterly''. History In 1920, the Utah chapter of the Service Star Legion formed the Memory Grove Committee, seeking to petition for 30 acres of land. The city granted the southernmost 20 acres. Volunteers, including student and Boy Scouts, cleared garbage, stones, and weeds, and by May 20 the committee had purchased 300 trees for planting.

Evening Star Baptist Church
Evening is the period of a day that starts at the end of the afternoon and overlaps with the beginning of night. The exact times when evening begins and ends depend on location, time of year, and culture, but it is generally regarded as beginning when the Sun is low in the sky and lasting until the end of twilight. Depending on the speaker, it may start as early as 5 p.m. and to last until night. It may be used colloquially to include the last waning afternoon shortly before sunset. Etymology The word is derived from the Old English ''ǣfnung'', meaning 'the coming of evening, sunset, time around sunset', which originated from ''æfnian'', meaning "become evening, grow toward evening". The Old English ''æfnian'' originated from ''æfen'' (eve), which meant "the time between sunset and darkness", and was synonymous with even (Old English ''æfen''), which meant the end of the day. The use of "evening" dates from the mid 15th century. See also * Crepuscular – animals tha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
