Kennecott Copper Mines

*Fun fact, this is my 100th post :D crazy stuff*

We took Hudson to see some BIG trucks this past weekend. The Kennecott Copper Mine is just about 15 minutes from our house and we know how much Hudson loves all things cars so we thought it would be fun to take him. The mine is pretty cool, its one of only two man made things that can be seen from space. [in case your wondering, the other is the great wall of China]

He kept climbing up the cement. I was getting nervous there isnt much space to stand on that thing.

These tires are 12 feet tall!!! insane that giant trucks are down in the mine.
..these are also the same trucks that mater and lightening make tip over in cars two..

Hudson would try and climb the little railing and kept screaming "car car car car!"

To get a feel how big this is, that arrow is pointing to a truck whose tires are this big......

crazy huh?


Inside the little museum, a picture once again of the giant trucks.


Just taking a drink brake. He was having a blast running around and pointing at all the cars [cars, trucks, planes, tractors, etc = car]


It was alot of fun! After we left we stopped by the park to slide and swing.





One of our friends met up with us and brought his little doggy. Elmo and Hudson got along great and Hudson would walk him around and just laugh. I think he needs a puppy ;)
