We left home about 7:30 a.m. Wednesday morning. Logan canyon was snowpacked in many places, but we made it through safely and continued on to Rawlins. We were stopped in Sinclair because the freeway was closed to Laramie for about 3 hrs. Finally we made in to Sidney and spent the night. Had good weather on Friday and got to Omaha mid afternoon. Had Dinner with our good friends, George and Maria Bryan. And visited with Bishop Van Dyke, wife, Raylyn and daughter, Katie. It was so good to see these dear people. Then onto Nauvoo by about 1:30 Friday. We checked in at the mission office and then were given a tour and shown where we would be living and given keys. Then we spent quite some time unloading the car and trying to get the apartment ready. We were so hungry so we went out to eat and when we came back we found that none of our keys worked. We were locked out. After about an hour of frustration, our district leader came with master keys and we made it in. We did a little more unpackin and fell into bed exhausted. But, hey, we are IN NAUVOO.

So glad that you made it and look forward to reading future blogs.
ReplyDeleteWe have some good friends whose parents live in Nauvoo. Her father used to be in the temple presidency. I will have to ask her what her maiden name is again as it has left me.
Her father suffered a severe stroke and her sweet mother is caring for him at present. There home is on the market and they are in hopes that someone will buy it so they can move closer to their daughter here in Davis County.
So glad you are bloging this mission.
