Nauvoo the Beautiful

This is the Mansion House where Joseph and Emma lived. They didn't get to live here very long befor he was mayrtered. The little house below is the Bee House. Emma had Joseph and Hyrum secretly buried under it. She gave instructions for her burial to be near the corner of the Bee House. No one knew she was planning to be buried next to Joseph. The bodies were discovered later and given a proper head stone.

How do like my friends?

These are pictures of the Carthage Jail and it's visitors' center. It was very humbling to stand in the same room where our beloved Prophet was killed. The door still had the bullet holes in it. The Prophet fell from the 2nd story window near the well.

Dad and I went through a session in the beautiful Nauvoo Temple and enjoyed wandering around town.
