Nauvoo - April 2009

Ed and I made the 3 1/2 hour trip south to Nauvoo, Illinois on Friday in order to visit the temple there!

Statue of Joseph Smith in front of a new cafe near the temple.

Statue of Joseph Smith and his brother, Hyrum. Behind flows the Mississippi River.

Beautiful stained-glass star window

The first inkling of Spring.

The top of the temple. Ed and I actually got to go up into the highest point of the temple once when we were cleaning there one night. We got to touch the top of the dome and look through the windows across the river and the town of Nauvoo.
