Fall Time Fun

Ramin, Chris, Taylor and I all headed out to Kennecott Copper Mine yesterday. We only live about 5 minutes away from it now - literally. I hadn't been there in about 20 years I'd guess and it has definitely changed quite a bit. It was very cool to go up there and check it out. We also spent a lot of time in their little museum thing and I even got some souvenirs from our trip. It was fun stuff! After the mine we all went up to This Is The Place Heritage Park to go through the Haunted Village. It was fun too but we didn't get any pictures. It was a great fall weekend and a great day to be outside!

View of the mine - apparently it's 2.5 miles across!

Their big machine that scoops away at the mountain

Each one of these big huge trucks has 6 of those huge tires!

For comparison, that's what a school bus looks like next to one of those huge trucks!
