New Temples!

Yes it's true the Phoenix Metro area will be getting a new temple!! It will be located in Gilbert and the other temple will be located in the Gila Valley. For those of you who aren't familiar with Arizona the Gila Valley is where Safford and other small LDS founded cities are. This is very exciting news. For a long time we have had only one temple in AZ and then the one in Snowflake was built in 2003.

A local Mesa-onian over here in FL was telling me the same thing. I can't believe i thought the Gila Valley was near Tucson... i was thinking Gila Bend. Either way, very exciting!

SHouldn't Scott's "lilly-pie" read that he's 3 years, 11 months.. and something something days old? Isn't his birthday the end of May? So confused.

Grandma Fuller would be amazed that anyone even knows where Gilbert is, much less that there will be a temple there. It was still a one-horse town with about a two block "downtown" when I was in High School. When my mom was in High School, her graduating class at Gilbert High had 27 people in it.

Quite amazing.

I love learning little tidbits of history like that. I remember when i use to live in AZ how i'd talk Grampa's ear off with all my questions about the war, old Mesa, charlamain (sp?). THanks Shel for the FYI!
