NAUVOO!

We are finally here...I could hardly believe it!
The Pictures I took that first night. We got there right after sundown and the light was perfect. The flowers are amazing too...just as pretty as Temple Square in Salt Lake, and you could smell them as you walked around the temple grounds. It was a beautiful night as you can see. I am so excited to be here...and feel so blessed to have this opportunity.

This statue is of Joseph and Hyrum and stands just in front of the Temple and depicts them as they are riding off to Carthage. It is very touching to think of that occasion and what must have been going through their minds. You can feel the spirit of Joseph Smith so strongly here. This really is the CITY OF JOSEPH!!
