We had a nice trip to Nauvoo over the 4th of July weekend. None of us had been there before, and it is amazing how there is so much to see and do. The church has restored so many various buildings, that you can experience Nauvoo like it was when the pioneers lived there. The most breathtaking thing was seeing the Temple. In my mind I had thought that it would have been small, like the Kirtland, OH temple, but no, it is very large. The church rebuilt it on the exact footprint that the original one was built on. Just to see the size of it, and know the pioneers built it, is an amazing feat.
