Palmyra & Kirtland

We took a long weekend trip to see some of the churches historical sites in New England. Our first stop was Palmyra, which is a beautiful place except for when it is 100°F and about the same percentage of humidity. Despite the smiles on our faces, we were dying. There were old folks biting the dust left and right. This photo is just outside the Sacred Grove.

Here is Ronin standing on a bench demonstrating the type of yalp that got him removed from the movie that the rest of the family was watching.

This is Adrienne with a friend of hers in the cast of the Hill Cumorah pageant.

I tried a few photos of the pageant at night, they worked pretty well. It was a impressively sized production. I have to recommend the dress rehearsal night. There were no crowds and no concessions to tempt the kiddies.

The next stop was Kirtland, Ohio. I did not realize how big a historic site the church had here. It was really well done. This is where the School of the Prophets took place.

As there must be balance in all things we ended our trip with a visit to the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame. It was pretty neat. Especially where they had spots with music listening stations and I got the chance to expose Patrick to the Clash and the Talking Heads. As I have never taken acid, I did have a difficult time explaining the meaning of the Pink Floyd pig suspended from the ceiling. Hippies... geez.
