After the Johnson farm we headed back to Kirtland and went to the Morley Farm, just outside of town. The home there isn't original and is a private residence now (senior missionaries) but we walked up the trail to an opening in the forest. It was beautiful and we all thought it reminded us of the Sacred Grove in Palmyra. We had a family testimony meeting and reflected on the things we've seen and felt while here in Kirtland. There was a very special feeling there. Later when we talked to the sister missionaries they told us that is near the place where the Father and Son appeared to the Prophet Joseph. No wonder it felt sacred.
We came back down the path and had dinner and played on the lawn near the parking lot. Everything is so green here!! Lush green grass, trees, forests everywhere!
We stopped back by the visitors center and the Sister missionaries printed off a bunch of info on my Mom's family that lived in Kirtland during this time. Very cool!
