Landing; Orlando, Florida
We had a great trip across our country to Orlando. I love looking down at the cities and farmlands. As we landed in Orlando, I was surprised at all the lakes, it was so pretty. I was reminded of Bette Midler’s song, ‘From a Distance’.
From a distance the world looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains white
From a distance the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It’s the voice of hope
It’s the voice of peace
It’s the voice of every man
From a distance we all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a distance we are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They are the songs of every man
God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
From a distance you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance I just cannot comprehend
What all this fightings for
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it’s the hope of hopes
It’s the love of loves
It’s the heart of every man
It’s the hope of hopes
It’s the love of loves
This is the song for every man
God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
God is watching us
God is watching
God is watching us from a distance

We had a delicious Italian meal at our friend’s home, it was yummy, and then it was time to RELAX and ENJOY! Notice my poor left big toe, the toe nail. That is what happens when someone steps on your toe, you can lose your toe nail. I might have to touch it up in photoshop! :^)

We went to our granddaughter’s birthday party and it was so fun, there were all these little 9 year old girls there for a TEA PARTY. They were so cute, as they held up their saucer, the cup and their pinky fingers in the air as they drank their tea (herbal tea or hot chocolate)! ENJOYING LIFE!

The Salt Lake Temple was built by Mormon Pioneers and it took them 40 years to build. It was announced on July 28, 1847 and dedicated on April 6, 1893. The pioneers gave so much to build this Temple to their God. On the outside of the Salt Lake Temple is a gold plaque that says; ‘Holiness to the LORD The House of the LORD’.

Angel Moroni
Salt Lake City, Utah
The Angel Moroni sits on the highest spire of the Salt Lake Temple and is atop most Temples throughout the world. He is remembered for instructing and guiding the Prophet Joseph Smith to the Gold Plates, which Joseph was then able to translate into what we know today as The Book of Mormon. As a mortal man, Moroni was the last author in The Book of Mormon and his father was Mormon.

The Salt Lake Temple
Salt Lake City, Utah
Today we went to a friend’s sealing in the Salt Lake Temple. She and her husband are here from Switzerland and Giulia asked me to take photos of her and Pio at the Temple and at the dinner that evening. I usually don’t do wedding photos, but being they are here for only a week, I decided to do it for them. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, so before I went into the Temple I walked around it and took some photos of the Temple and the billowing clouds above it.
