On Saturday, October 13th we headed to Niagara Falls. I have never been and we figured that this was as close as my mom was going to get to going so we packed up the van and headed out...It was raining and cold but worth it!

There are 3 different waterfalls that make up Niagara Falls (American Falls: the tallest, Bridal Vail Falls: the smallest, and Horseshoe Falls: the largest).

There is a boat that will take you up to the falls called the "Maid of the Mist"

After we rode on the boat we hiked up the side of American Falls...

We stayed in a hotel that night in Niagara Falls and traveled to Palmyra in the morning to visit the Church sites there.

| Entrance to the Sacred Grove |
I am amazed at my little boy Nathanial. We were walking through the Sacred Grove and he stops and asks, "Mommy will you take my picture here?" I take his picture and then ask, "Why did you want me to take your picture here?" He replied, "Because I think this is where Jesus was". (wipe a tear)

We came out to Palmyra in the Summer with Lanie but we weren't able to see the Martin Harris Farm so we decided to go see it before we left town...
This is not the original house but it is the original location...
When we were leaving Palmyra we passed a Stretched Hummer, I thought it looked pretty cool...
These are picture from the Palmyra Temple Grounds...
