This week we were able to go and see the Grand canyon for the first time. This aster was on the rim of the canyon with a butterfly on it. If you look close there is an orange dot which would be him.
On the way to the Grand Canyon we stopped to see a meteor crater. A long time ago a meteorite landed with enough force to make this crater 700 feet deep and 4000 feet across. Below is a piece of the meteorite found several miles away. It is 92% iron, 5% nickel and lots of trace minerals and weighs 4200 pounds. This area has been used for training astronauts to go to the moon because of the similarities to the landscape of the moon.
Pictures are great but to see it for real is much more spectacular. We also watched the Imax film which was very interesting and is recommended.
With our excursion to the Grand Canyon and shopping in Flag the week has slipped away. On Tuesday we had a good experience at our Addiction Recovery meeting. The spirit was there and positive comments were made. We have had seven attending lately. Several have turned their life around and been clean for several months. At the end of class one fellow received a phone call saying that there is a chance he can have his job back which was great news. We are excited when we see the change for good in their life and heartbroken when temptation takes over again.
Love to all,
Elder and Sister Lybbert
