    Out of curiosity, who here lives the closest to a temple? I could be in the San Antonio temple parking lot within 3 minutes....

      Nice try, thanks for playing. I'm sure there are several here that live in UV that are 3 minutes away from 3 temples.

        I think this was a pity move to salvage the testimonies of those members who insisted all along that Pocatello is a "real town" that "doesn't" reek of shit while Twin Falls and Meridian get their own temples! Hahahaha.

          Monson and Hales look like they've thoroughly enjoyed their $1 million. I figure the decades of constant meetings and service coupled with the loss of any hope of retirement is worth $1 million. I mean, Monson himself has spent something like 50 years as an apostle. That's like $20K per year. Totally worth giving up your hopes and dreams and spending the rest of your life living a ruse and trying to convince others to live the ruse.

            I know I don't but I do live closer now than even when I lived in Utah (pre Draper/Oquirrh Mtn temples). I'm about 15 mins away with no traffic, so in reality 20 mins away.

              According to Google Maps, I'm a mere 18 hours and 12 minutes from the San Antonio temple, so I guess you win.

                      Someone on my FB posted following the announcement: "I squealed in delight to here this morning's temple announcements knowing that my mother's place of birth will finally be blessed with a temple. So happy for the people of Pocatello." She's also the girl that posts "It's hard to believe my great, great grandma would have been 137 years old today."

                            Elder Costa here got his MBA at BYU the year after me (though to be clear, I am younger).

                            I don't remember him.

                              If they build where I think they are going to build the new SS temple will be a stone's throw from my house. The Church owns all the farmland by my house and there's been a master plan that included a temple for several years. I was told about it right after I moved in. Alas, I'm going to move closer to work in SLC before they even break ground.
