Newel K. Whitney Store & Kirtland Temple



The film at the visitor's center in Kirtland was awesome! We went to the Whitney Store and I was able to look through the accounts book and find Vinson Knight's name and Reuben McBride(I would have liked to browse more into the book but the group was waiting on me!). But, the account book made them more real! We didn't find Vinson Knight's home this time--mostly because we didn't take time! The facimile of the sawmill and the ashery were most enlightening. I always had wondered where they got money to buy the needed supplies for the Temple completion and the ashery answered that question!

This visit to the Kirtland temple was in the evening and it was so beautiful sitting so magestically on the hill. The grounds were so beautiful!
