One day as we were leaving the Johnson Home the sun was just setting in the west but off to the east this is what we saw.  Truly amazing!


The Holtrys invited us to go to the temple with them down to Columbus so they came down from Kirtland and picked us up.  It is almost a three hour drive from here.  We made it in good time, got in the temple ready for our session and it was the old film.  We had hoped to see the new film but were just glad to be able to be in the temple.  One of the special features of this temple are the Nauvoo Windows which are not really windows but mirrors.  They were hand made by a dentist.  When he came to put them in he had been given the wrong measurements so had to make a second set of the windows.  They are truly beautiful.  Of course they are inside and we couldn't take pictures but it was special to see them.
