Our trip to the MTC

We didn't make too many stops, but we couldn't resist stopping in Independence at the visitor's center. As it turns out, this mission is next door to Clint's mission. His part of Kansas runs right next to their part of Kansas. One of the sisters serving at the visitor's center had just returned from serving near the border of their mission. She said - yep no one really lives out there! The people that do are very nice and will invite you to sit on their porch and chat with you!

Then of course we had to take of picture of the Community of Christ's temple. Parked across the street was this interesting van!






This is a picture of the Garden of the God's. Pike's Peak is in the background. There is a beautiful park in the foreground with wonderful hiking and biking trails. It's right in Colorado Springs.





On the face of one mountain in the Garden of the Gods, a couple of rock climbers must have left their water bottles !





This rock formation was called "kissing camels." It's a little hard to tell from this angle, but you can kind of see the two heads kissing each other.

We stopped to see the Denver Temple too. It's beautiful. We didn't have time to go through it, but we did take a few pictures.

Here we are finally at the MTC! Clint was so excited - as you can see. It was a quick goodbye which was easier than a long goodbye. I miss him coming into my room every night and talking to us. I miss him making me laugh. But I LOVE hearing how much he loves studying the gospel. He's really enjoying what he's doing. I know he'll grow so much. Love you Clint!
