Palmyra

Since we were in Rochester we decided to also check out a few church history sites before Christmas.  It was tons of fun.  The Joseph Smith Family Farm was really pretty cool.  We even saw the fireplace where they hid the plates.  Then, since it was the middle of winter and no one else was there, we went tromping out into the sacred grove alone.  It was an amazing experience to be standing in such a sacred place.  It really helped put is in the Christmas spirit.  Then we climbed the hill Cumorah in a blizzard.  This was also a great experience but a little less fun because of the fear of frostbite.  The next day we went to the place where The Book of Mormon was printed.  Actually a really fun place to go see and understand better the amount of work it took to print it.  Wow!  Anyway, I was kinda like "you want to go to the printing press place TOO, seriously?"  but it was one of my favorite stops.  I highly reccommend the trip.
