Manor Lands (Project 2)
For this project we worked really long days. Tuesday and Wednesday we had 14 hour days and then on Thursday we had a 12 hour work day. Which makes for some really really long days. Even though we only worked 3 days it definitely felt like a 40 hour week. So that is typical work each week except....
That it Snowed!!!! The night of the first day it began to snow hard. We kept waiting for them to tell us that we were going to cancel the project but it never came. It was freezing cold and snowed all that night. Pretty crazy When we got back that night we had to set up our tents in the snow which was miserable. When we woke up that morning and got to work again it continued to snow. But we kept working through it. It was really really cold. But luckily after lunch that afternoon on the second day the snow stopped and the sun came out and it began to warm up and the snow had melted. We had a pretty good afternoon and finished the trip strong.

General Conference
This is Kenfo and one of the big screens that they have set up in the conference center
This is my standing in the aisle where we sit
It was awesome to be able to hear all the general authorities and see them live. It was a great experience for me and Ken.

Church Sites
The Smith Farm
This was were Joseph Smith moved to with his family. It isn't the original log cabin but the church has rebuilt it in the same location and actually used the same kind of tools to reconstruct it. It was really cool to be in such and old house.
This is from the outside looking up at the window into the bedroom that Joseph would have been in when Moroni first appeared to Joseph as an angel. The second pictures is a view of the inside of that bedroom.
Me and getting a picture after the tour.
This is the top of the Hill Cumorah where the record of the Book of Mormon was eventually buried and hidden by Moroni only to be later uncovered by Joseph Smith. They have since built a statue of Moroni as an angel.
The Hill Cumorah is the tallest hill in the area so you would get alot of poeple that would just come relax and enjoy the view.
Joseph Smith Farm This is the farm where the records where kept for a long time. I didn't have enough time to go on the tour but I was able to get this picture.
This is where the first copy of the Book of Mormon was published. It was fun to see how old books were made and the equipment they used.
If you go to this link than you will be able to see a lot more of the pictures I took of the historical sites.
