Hill Cumorah Pagent Tour

Last week I got to back to Palmyra, NY to see the Hill Cumorah Pagent! It was so neat to go back and learn so much about our church's history. We started in Philadelphia where we learned more about our Country's history and then headed to Palmyra. We had some stops along the way and were able to see so many significant places, it was seriously amazing! We were able to visit the Smith Farm and the Sacred Grove and even though we got rained on, you could still feel the spirit so strong! After stopping in Niagara Falls, Canada, we ended our trip in Kirtland, Ohio and were able to visit the Kirtland Temple. It's so crazy to think that these are the actual places that were there when our church was just getting organized! To be able to be in the same places that the Prophet Joseph Smith was! Wow!!
If you haven't been back there, I would highly recommend it first chance you get! Oh and I can't forget to mention our faithful leader, Alan McKay! This man knows it all! He makes the trip just 10 times better because he teaches you things that you most likely won't hear from anyone else! He seriously made the trip unforgettable!
I took like a gazillion pictures, so here's just a few:
