I love to see the temple

In each of the cities we visited, we had the opportunity to see the LDS temple. We drove past it outside of Boston as we drove to Lexington and Concord. We drove past the New York City temple while on our bus tour of the city. And we drove past the Washington DC temple on our way in to the city. Each edifice is an imposing sight and each is a blessing to the saints who live in that part of the world. Rick attended the NYC temple while Pat and I went to see South Pacific. He made a noble choice and he had a great experience. Of course he commented on how quiet it was inside the temple even though it is located in uptown Manhattan in a very busy part of the city, across from the Lincoln Center and the Julliard School of Music.
We also had an interesting experience listening to General Conference over the Internet in our hotel room on Sunday, October 4. Our niece Catherine brought her laptop to our hotel room and got it hooked up to high speed Internet. We thoroughly enjoyed listening/watching the messages that were delivered at both Sunday sessions, sitting in the overstuffed chairs of the Hampton Inn in Revere, Massachusetts. What a wonderful blessing that conference is available to anyone who has an Internet connection and who has a desire to participate in the meetings. We recorded the Saturday sessions on our DVR before we left and we have been watching those sessions since we missed seeing them when they aired. What a wonderful age we live in! We can participate in conference from almost anywhere, anytime and be taught, edified and feel the spirit of our Heavenly Father through His servants. The messages where powerful and strengthened our testimonies. We're so blessed to be members of the church of Jesus Christ.
