John got a Job!

John got the call yesterday that we have been waiting for! He has been searching for a job since the beginning of February. He applied for kennecott a couple of weeks ago and was impressed with the place and, also will be doing what he went to school for many years ago. He will be working on all their equipment. He is like a little school boy! So excited!! He will be commuting a lot and we will look into moving closer if he really enjoys it there and feels like it is really stable. We appreciate all your love and concern through this trying time and are grateful for all the extra prayers sent our way! He will begin work on April 27th.

About the Mine:
.Kennecott's Bingham Canyon Mine has produced more copper than any mine in history - about 18.1 million tons.
.The mine is 2-3/4 miles across at the top and 3/4 of a mile deep. You could stack two Sears Towers (now known as the Willis Building) on top of each other and still not reach the top of the mine.
.The mine is so big, it can be seen by the space shuttle astronauts as they pass over the United States.
.By 2015, the mine will be at least 500 feet deeper than it is now.
.If you stretched out all the roads in the open pit mine, you'd have 500 miles of roadway - enough to reach from Salt Lake City to Denver.
