Monday June 21, 2010

Greetings,

Today we toured temple square in Salt Lake City, Utah. We heard a recital at noon today in the Mormon Tabernacle on the hugh pipe organ. Then we drove north to Promontory Point, Utah where the transcontinental railroad was finished. We have had beautiful weather on our trip. Tomorrow we leave Salt Lake City head towards Denver. This is the first day of summer and tomorrow is our last day of driving.
