Visiting upstate New York was an adventure for all of us. It was (surprisingly) a state I hadn't been to yet. (outside of LaGuardia and JFK) Driving to Palmyra, we were set on taking it all in. My form of "absorbing" is taking pictures. Way too many pictures, in some people's opinions. Not mine. There can never be too many pictures. ;) We set out for the Joseph Smith Farm first and stumbled upon the Palmyra Temple first. It was on the list of places to visit, we just didn't expect to find it without looking. Really, everything we were going to see was like going to the monuments in D.C. It's all right there, within a few miles of each other. Although, back then, the mode of transportation was either on foot or horse, soooo. Anyway, here is the fam on the lawn by the temple. I love tripods. What doesn't show on our faces is that we are all getting wet bums sitting in the grass. It wasn't soggy-puddles wet, but it's the kind of wetness that you don't notice till you stand up. We all looked like we'd peed our pants! We dried off soon enough and continued on to the Joseph Smith Farm. More tomorrow!

I love the matching shirts and sunglasses! You guys are too cool for words! Make sure you let us know which route you are taking to get back to Idaho.
What a great photo!! You guys look great! :)
And you're right... you can never have too many photos. The computer may disagree at times, but that's why I have external storage! I always take high-res (as my little digital allows) photos too. You can always reduce it, but you can't get it back if you don't start with a decent shot.
