Yesterday we went to the Kennecott Copper Mine...one of the only man-made things visible from space. It is a massive open pit mine. It was pretty cool and we enjoyed ourselves while there. On the way home however, our car went POW! and started smoking. We managed to pull over and get out of the way. I believe the clutch is shot. We have to wait until Monday to see what will happen. We pulled the car home using a tow rope and Brian's SUV. This was much cheaper than a tow truck. This comes two days after a visit to the mechanic who proclaimed our car well cared for. Oh well. It really didn't ruin our day, and I am glad that it didn't happen on our way to Oregon.
