July 27 - Spent most of the Day at Palmyra, NY, where the Prophet Joseph lived. We walked in his steps. We got to see his home, the Sacred Grove - that is huge and where the Cicada's were singing to high heaven, the Hill Cumorah (the Pageant had been the previous week but the missionaries were still pumped), the Grandin Press where the Book of Mormon was first printed, and got to do initiatories at the temple there. Many of the temple workers remembered Dave and Elaine, who were there last year and wished they'd come back. Then we drove 5 more hours through New York and New Jersey and arrived late at Karlene's where she had a hot pie coming out of the oven for a great midnight snack.
