2nd Stop-Palmyra

Because we live relatively near to Nauvoo and Carthage, it is the only church historic site I have been to out here. We couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit Palmyra--Joseph Smith's home, the printing press that first published the Book of Mormon, the sacred grove, and the new temple--and also the Hill Cumorah.

Walking out from the Sacred Grove--what a beautiful place!
