Kennecot Copper Mine - Free Day
Jake: "Mom, we are at a big whole in the errrf" aka earth
All 13 grandkids
Here would be the miniture scale of all the BIG tractors outside. All the boys "picked" which one they would like to have. Jake and Isaac picked the same one and let's just say that they both couldn't give in and pick another one. Isaac stood firm and Jake started to cry. He really didn't want to share it or give Isaac the chance to stand by it. We tried to explain they were just looking at them, and wouldn't take them home but sadly this ended in a huge tantrum and screaming crying on the floor.
Finally after several minutes Isaac lost interest in this "pretend" tractor and Jake stood firm. He wouldn't budge. We eventually had to peel him away from the glass. He WANTED that tractor! Sorry little guy there wasn't a gift shop or else I think we would have given in and got you one. But when we arrived home Jake found his cute chubby tractors that I think Brian & Ashley got him for Christmas. So he hasn't let them out of his sight since then. It was a fun little free outing!

We enjoyed reading about this outing. I brought back memories. When we were first married Grandpa's job was driving one of the big trucks down in a Kennecot "whole in the errrf" in Nevada.
