We left home on on May 31st and flew to Buffalo NY arriving around 11:30 pm. and traveled to Niagara Falls. We spent most of Monday visiting many of the attractions at Niagara Falls. On Tuesday we traveled to LockPort. There is a two hour cruise of part of the Erie Canal there. We traveled back to Niagara Falls and visit some more of the sites there. I am always in awe at the beauties and wonders the Lord has created on this earth.
On Wednesday we traveled to Palmyra. We visited the Hill Cumorah visitors center for most of the afternoon. On Thursday we visited the Peter Whitmer Farm in the morning, and the Grandin Book Store and Sacred Grove in the afternoon.

The next is Ann and me at the Peter Whitmer Farm.
The next two are in the Sacred Grove.
The next is the Bed and Breakfast place we stayed at in Palmyra
The last is at Flaherty's restaurant.
We had a great time. We felt the spirit of our Heavenly Father as we contemplated the great events of the restoration of the Gospel that occurred there in Palmyra. All the missionaries were very helpful.
Our Son in Law Andrew's parents are serving a mission in Palmyra. We were able to visit and have lunch with them on Friday before we left to go back to Buffalo. We enjoyed our visit with them.
We flew back home on Saturday June 5.
We had a great time. We really appreciate the gifts our children gave us to help make this trip enjoyable.
