Thanks to: The many city businesses and their support workers, who witnessed the many breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea & dinner long business conversations & numerous napkin drawings that the project demanded, such as the very friendly young staff of Cucina, the people of The Lower Avenues Neighborhood, Fresh boutique, the Coffee Garden, Starbucks downtown, Wholefoods in Sugarhouse, the waiters of Café Oasis, Sawadee Thai, Sage

I also personally wish to thank Utah artist Blaine Anderson, wherever he is, for generously introducing me to his people and his landscape in May 2007. Out of that memorable trip came my Inheriting Salt visual essay, gallery-exhibited in November 2008 in New York, followed by an invitation "out of the blue" in 2009 to this artist residency, which thus felt like a destiny.

… AND SPECIAL THANKS TO THE PEOPLE OF SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH
