Niagara Falls, New York

We went to Niagara Falls after that and boarded the Maid of the Mist to get up close. It was beautiful! and wet!

They had some antique sleds and buggies in the jell-o building also

We stopped by the birthplace of jello and took a look through the jello museum! Although we were disappointed that they didn't actually sell jello.

Palmyra, New York

Above is the Whitmer house, where Joseph and Oliver did most of the translating of the Book of Mormon.

Around the farm

This is the house that the Smith family moved into a few months after the first vision, just fifty or so yards from the original cabin.

After that, we went to the Smith family farm.

Just by chance, one of the missionaries showing us around the Grandin building was from our old ward in Loomis!

After the Hill Cumorah, we went to a really yummy pizza place, then we went to the Grandin building, which was the printing house for the Book of Mormon.

We had the whole hill to ourselves!

In the visitors center for the Hill Cumorah

Boston, Massachusetts

That huge monument in the background is for the Battle of Bunker Hill

It seemed like there was an ancient chrch around every corner!

Driving through Harvard (the bus driver said, "Havad")

We took a bus tour around boston and saw a lot of historical buildings.

The Massachusetts capitol building

In front of the Paul Revere monument, with the North Church in the background, where they used light signals to show that the British were coming; one if by land, two if by sea.

We met up with Amy Strauch Kappelman and she showed us around Boston for most of the day.

We were in Boston April 9-11. We got lunch at the Quincy Market and then took a ferry around Boston Harbor.
