Here's Katie enjoying our road trip just how we taught her.
In modern language, we would call this dinning room / kitchen / family room a "great room."
Here's the Newel K. Whitney store, where many revelations in the D&C were received, where the School of the Prophets was held, and where my great-great-great-great-grandfather John Tanner bought a spelling book.
JaNae and I were so excited to be touring these great places, we forgot that Katie still needed her nap as a part of her routine.
One of my favorite places on our trip, the Kirtland Temple. I am in awe of the sincere sacrifice which went into building this temple; the blessings the Saints received for this sacrifice is a lesson for us all that when the Lord says "Open the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing" He means it.
And then we finnished off the day with some ice cream from a local dive.

I love that the local dive is like a block away from the temple :)
Because you mentioned what a sacrifice the temple was to make, here is a bit of evidence of that: the quoins (the square stones just on the corners) have a very different texture than they should, because the saints were so poor they couldn't even afford chisels to make them correctly.
amazing!! That's a nice family picture in front of the temple!
and no better way to finish up the long day than with ice creammmm!
