The Village of Kirtland and the visitors center.





This room in the Whitney Store was the headquarters of the church for a time. Joseph also worked on the revelations here on this table.





The room where Joseph Smith instructed the brethren in The School of the Prophets



The Beautiful Kirtland Temple































On the Maid of the Mist boat. It was fantastic-we went right up to the Falls. What a view to look up at all that water tumbling over the edge.












Fancy Rain Gear and we needed it. The "mist" can soak you.





Looking over the falls from the street.

Our Hard Work!!

Welcome!!! The side planter and new lamppost that Bob did.

The front yard. The front plants aren't very big yet.


Side Planter



Here is the water fountain we put in the planter.




Our new patio and the planter Bob built.






A panorama of the backyard.






I moved all the front yard plants to the side of the
garage so the new steps install wouldn't kill them.







The cause of our poison ivy!! But it looks much better now.








One of our three garden boxes.











A New Design!

Well I am finally trying to "create" a cute blog! With Sheila's help I now have a cute July background and will now try to add pictures. Stay tuned!!
