In 1996 several couples
in the ward decided to take a trip to visit the LDS temples. We
had a bus driver in our ward that we wanted to have drive us.
We went to Manti, St. George, Las Vegas, San Diego, Los Angeles,
and Oakland. While on the trip several of us talked of a trip
to Canada. I mentioned that I would look into the cost of going.
Though the idea in my mind was forgotton, a few months later people
started asking when we were going to go. The following summer
we visited temples in Boise, Portland, Seattle, Cardston, Idaho
Falls and Logan. We did other fun things as we passed through
these fun places such as a lunch cruise in Portland and lunch
at Lake Louise in Canada.
After our Canadian
adventure, the same group began to ask when we would visit Palmyra,
Kirtland, and Nauvoo. We took a fun trip to the Hill Cumorah Pageant
in 1999. Since then we have enjoyed 3 or 4 LDS temple trips a
year with our fun little travel group traveling to LDS temples
all over the country.
In 2011 we will visited the temples in Denver, Albuquerque, while
enjoying a train ride to Siverton. In June we returned to Mt.
Rushmore and the Dakotas, and enjoyed the spirit at Martin's Cove.
Finally over Labor Day we went to Washington DC, and traveled
through the Carolinas to Atlanta.
In 2012 we will go to the Midwest, as promised. We will attend
temples in Columbus, Detroit, Chicago and St. Paul Minnesota.
We will also revisit Palmyra and Kirtland. For the first time,
we enjoy the Castle Valley Pageant in August. In September we
travel to Southern California. Finally, in Octover we do the long
awaited Nova Scotia cruise. We will attend temples in Montreal,
Halifax and Boston.
Looking to 2013 we
plan to return to Nauvoo and Winter Quarters.
All
we do is get together to attend the temples, and have fun as a
group doing it. So come with us as we travel to the LDS temples.
You may come on a temple trip that we have already planned or
make a suggestion for a trip in the future.
