Palmyra, Kirtland, Cleveland, and Niagra Falls Trip 9/08

One might ask, "When do we find time to work?"
Well, work is boring and traveling is much more fun, and..... Debbie gets a break from cooking and cleaning. Work will always be waiting for us when we get back. Enjoy the vacation pics.




Steve and Debbie at the Palmyra temple
with the Sared Grove in the background












Debbie at a quite spot in the Sacred Grove.

Steve and Debbie at Hill Cumorah.

OOPS, we cut off angel Moroni. He's the tall guy on top.

And then we were off to the Erie Canal. Doesn't look so eerie to me, just really dirty.










Inside the Smith family home in Palmyra
with all of the modern conveniences.

I think I'll get one of these for home.

Then we were off like a herd of turtles to Kirtland.




Debbie and sister Glo at the quarry where the stone was cut for the Kirtland temple.

Man, there's some really old stuff here in Kirtland.







Here is the whole vacation gang at the Whitney home where Joseph & Emma Smith lived for a time. Many revelations in the
D & C were given here.





Debbie doing some shopping at te Whitney store.
They didn't have the the Gucci purse she was looking for.
She did find some lovely horseshoe earings, however.
I guess the girls know what they are getting for Christmas.




Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.





I gotta get me one of these.






Niagra Falls on the Canadian side with Horseshoe Falls in the background


I wish they would turn it off for a minute.

The mist makes it hard to take a picture of the falls.







Debbie and big brother Larry. All dressed up and no where to go but into the falls.








Finally, our last stop to Old Fort Niagra, the oldest original standing building in North America with some very old and tired sitting north americans.






We had a blast but were glad to get back home to the dogs and the kid.
