Trip to Nauvoo Day 2

On Day 2, we continued driving toward Nauvoo. We came to Montrose and could see the temple from across the Mississippi. 


Jackson found a fish and was shocked at its completeness.



We traveled into the city of Nauvoo and went to the visitors' center. After viewing the displays and dioramas inside, we wandered outside and found this quilter. 


Ah, it's a double wedding ring she is working on.


We had reserved a house for the week in downtown Nauvoo. After checking in and changing we were able to attend the temple. What an incredible opportunity. I felt the Spirit of my own ancestors who lived there and were chased out.




I can hardly look at these without crying. These brothers went through so much together. Even death.
