At the Johnson farm in Hiram, OH where Joseph Smith received the revelation of the 76 Section of the Doctrine and Covenants.
At the Kirtland temple. Now owned by the Community of Christ.
At the Newel K. Whitney store where the prophet lived and received visitations.
Colby and Jayden and Lake Erie.
The family at Lake Erie.
Jayden relaxing at the lake. He loved it and was tired from running away from the waves.
This last week was spring break for Colby so we decided to go and visit Kirtland, OH. It was only about 3 hours away and our last stop for seeing all the church sites. I loved it and felt the spirit. The missionaries were great and had some good stories to tell along with the history. The weirdest part was the temple. Touring it they mainly talked about the structure, not the many miricles and visitations that occured there. It was sad but it just felt like a building.
That night was ate seafood and a place by the lake called Pickle Bills. It was good but we now know that Seattle seafood is better than lake fish. Sorry to anyone who feels different. The next day we went to Lake Erie, it was a lot of fun. Cold, but fun. Jayden loved it and played in the rocks and chased the birds. We then went to the Johnson farm about 30 miles away. It is where the prophet received the revelation for the 76 section of D&C. The spirit was strong there and we were glad we made the trip. It was fun to have several younger couples that were students as well go through the sites with us.
Colby is back in school today and I already miss him! Oh well, I guess I should be used to it :)
