Wednesday near SLC

We took a drive into Salt Lake City, and went to Bingham canyon copper mine. The  visitors center located on the rim of the open canyon pit was amazing. First we looked up information about the mine and when we got there it made the experience even better. A little trivia, this tire costs $18.000-$ 26.000 it will only last thru nine months of service. The pit is 3.5 mile across and 3/4 miles deep. They have taken ore from this pit for over 100 years. The trucks carry up to 320 tons per load. The trucks stand 26 ft high.  Look closely and you will see a long line of the trucks coming and going from the crusher area. Our last picture is our lunch stop in Jordan.

A few good days in No. Utah

Monday, we started on our small shopping spree. This picture is for those who wanted to go to the outlet mall in Park City

 Next a trip to the Olympic village, museum,slopes, viewing where history was made.

 Tuesday morning we decided to go to a temple where we haven't attended yet. A drive to the Timpanogos temple. What a beautiful experience to be able to go inside.

Finally over to the University mall for a walk. Only a true shopper would understand this sign. On this wonderful vacation we are  feeling 21 again.:)
