We went for lots of walks, enjoyed more moderate summer temperatures, went to museums, met Dallin H. Oaks at a bird show at the zoo, cheered (loudly)for Michael Phelps, listened to Jacob’s crazy ER stories about patients who sit on jars, and took a very fun and educational trip to the local world-class Kennecott Copper Mine. We visited while mining efforts were in full swing. The huge scale of the operation, the huge tiered crater in the earth, and the scores of huge earth moving equipment made it a wonder to watch. We all loved it. Go see it the next time you visit Salt Lake.
It really is huge.
Nana and Ellen entranced.

We had such a fun time with you Nana. Thanks for coming and saving the day! We love you and we owe you big!
