Saturday morning Karen and Glen were in Nauvoo so I left dad to rest up for our afternoon temple shift and went with them for my first experience with visiting the Nauvoo sites. I loved them all! We began with a wagon tour - a great way to get an overview of Nauvoo. Then we went to the cultural hall, the Scovil bakery, the tinsmith shop, the Browning gunsmith and blacksmith shop, the post office, John Taylor’s home and printing shop. Every one of them was interesting, informative and had inspiring stories. I loved hearing the words of the people who actually lived in these places. People talk a lot about the spirit of Nauvoo and it is real. You can’t help but feel something different on these grounds and in these buildings. It was a wonderful introduction to the historical sites.
