temples

I think many individuals would consider James and I a bit strange. We recently had the opportunity of being around Washington D.C. What was our major interest? Not the monuments, the museums, etc. It was attending the temple there. The others are wonderful and I was glad to be able to drive around by them and I hope to visit again and see more of them. However, a trip to another temple is something I will cherish. The opportunity to get away from the world and renew myself is priceless. Thanks so much to Uncle Blane, Aunt Judy and cousin Linnea and her husband Pat.

Perhaps this video from the church will help explain our desires for the temple.

I am so very glad you were able to meet up with Blane and Judy and Linnea and Pat. We told both Blane and Judy 'thank you' several times during the Allen and Twila Cox family reunion last Friday. Family is great and so are temples! And it is fun to visit different ones. Someday, I think I'd like to take a temple tour--most likely just hit the temples in the United States, but it would be fun to go to about every one of them.
