A Temple in Philly!! Woohoo. Now I know that my friends in Pittsburgh are just about dying, since they STILL have a six hour drive to the Temple in Washington DC and here in Philadelphia we have two temples within a three hour drive (DC and NYC), but still... I'm totally pumped :)
According to the rumor mill (our stake president) the Temple will be located at Broad and Noble. How awesome is that? It'll be right along the mass transit lines-- making it totally accessible for those without cars, which is pretty common here.
We'll keep you updated. But seriously. We're going to have a Temple here. I think I might cry.
EDIT
According to the LDS News Room the Temple will be located downtown. We're so excited!

...and it will probably be done about the time that Pete moves you guys to thailand and he is out on a boat with the navy. But seriously that will be so exciting. I am excited to invite people to the open house.
I totally thought of you when they announced it! That is sooo exciting
I did a happy dance for you and Pete. So much easier to arrange a baby sitter for Temple trips, when the temple is in the same state :)
I gasped when they announced it, and everyone looked at me. They just don't get what a big deal that is!
