Far West and Adam-Ondi-Ahman

After Liberty Jail we drove to Far West. It is a temple site, with four cornerstones of the temple that was never built (yet, anyway). We were the only people there and we loved every minute of it. It felt so peaceful and reverent.

So green and pretty

The monument for Far West

Even the bathroom was quaint

And last, but certainly not least, we went to Adam-Ondi-Ahman, an amazingly beautiful and peaceful/spiritual place.

And then we drove home. After such a long and fun-filled day, the boys were exhausted:

Here are a couple of things that struck us as funny/interesting on the trip:

-a giant tractor drove into a gas station to "fill up"

-we drove past a street sign labeled "Utah Lane." Um, I know we have been driving for 3 1/2 hours, but are we back in Utah already?

-we drove by a quarry and the sign said, "GALLATIN QUARRY. WE ROCK!" (hah, hah)

-while we were at Adam-Ondi-Ahman, we only saw one other car. The car had three people in it, and they walked to the valley the same time we did. We started small talk, and found out that one of the men in the car is in the same ward as Christian's stepmom. Talk about a small world!
