Palmyra, New York

Next stop was to visit Rochester, NY where our friends Eric and Katie live.  Eric was friends with them his freshman year at BYU.  We hadn't seen them for about 7 years.  Just so happens they are moving to Idaho in 2 weeks.  Good timing!  We hung out with them on Saturday night and then went to church with them the next morning.  We all went to see the church sites in Palmyra which is about 40 minutes from where they live.

What a face

Sacred Grove
Book of Mormon Print Shop.  Blake loved learning, commenting, and asking questions during the tour.  Janie liked running around touching everything.  The tour guide said something about the Book of Mormon and the English language.  Blake responded "Like an English muffin!"  I loved seeing all these sites that I have learned about my whole life.  It was a great experience.
