Someone told me today that Springville is #1 in the nation per capita for Meth users and it's especially bad amongst Single and Stay at home Moms.

Is this true or was he blowing sunshine?

I have relatives in Springville who have been working with the police over the last several months to bust a big meth dealer across the street from them.

Springville is pretty bad, not sure about the exact numbers. But a good friend of mine is a Springville cop and he said meth is a huge problem. When I was in highschool when ever someone wanted drugs they went to S-ville.

Doesn't surprise me. "Art City". Isn't it always those artistic types who are into the deviant behavior?

Springville is art city? I have been away from Utah for a long time I guess, but even allowing for big changes, Springville is an ART city? When did THAT happen?

It can't be worse than Malad, Idaho.

Springville Art Museum is reasonably well known in Utah. I don't know how much respect it gets on a state or national level. I just know it's a good place to take a Zoobie coed on a date. She'll think you have "culture". It's a great way to show how "edgycated" you are if you take a date there.

I went there to a Wedding reception a few months ago.

Yawn.

When I was in elementary school back in the Jurassic period, our school did a field trip to the Springville Art Museum. I will never forget it. We walked into the first room and there was a big life-size statue of a well-endowed naked woman. It was mesmerizing. Lots of tents were pitched that morning. They boys kept watching where the teachers were so they could sneak back to that room and stare.
