Utah Legislature: How to do the final day

This morning I’m off to the Hill to catch my favorite day of the Utah Legislature: the last day.

The last day is the best day.  Not because it’s over, and we don’t have to listen to Stephenson or Wimmer hate on the Fed’s while cashing their checks, or because public education only has to go avoid the chopping block for another 24 hours, but because it’s crazy busy.  People run everywhere on the last day.  Even interns! (Take that, Ryan, Jake, and Spencer!)

I’ll be loitering… er, engaging in the festivities all morning in the hopes of finding one — just one! — legislator who can explain why he or she voted for HB150, then attending at Legislative “Tweet Up” organized through The SideTrack (where you can track my day trip), and Twitter conversations with Holly on the Hill (any bloggers, tweeters, or just those aimless and bored should stop by the cafeteria at Noon to join in), then back to Cache Valley to prepare a report for the show this afternoon.

If all you hear at 4:05 is Bill humming show tunes, you’ll know Chris Buttars spotted me.  Send help.  And if you really want to follow along, The Senate Site has a great “how to do the final day” post up with links to all the audio, video, twitterin’, and trackin’ available.
