This last weekend we had the awesome opportunity to go see the Hill Camorah Pageant and the sacred grove. I got to see the sacred grove last year when I went on Heritage Tours, but we didn't see the pageant. We packed up Saturday morning and took the 5 hour road trip up to Palmyra, NY. The pageant was everything and more than I expected. It was super easy to follow, and it wasn't too long or too short. It was FANTASTIC! Not to mention the hecklers who stand outside the pageant and yell things into a megaphone! They were saying the oddest things, that we just had to laugh! We rented a hotel room for the night, and lets just say it was a bit on the ghetto side! That's how we do things here in Jersey! haha It was one of those hotels where you never take your shoes off, even in the shower! There were five of us because Nic's mom was in town, so the three of them squoze into one double, yes DOUBLE, bed! So funny! We got up Sunday morning and headed to the sacred grove. I love going to this place. Nic read about Joseph Smith's first vision, and we just sat and talked about it. It was so neat. Then...we saw some of our leaders from our Heritage Tours trip! The July group just happened to be there the same day as us! We had a good long talk with one of the leaders and saw some people we knew from high school, and AF. It was soo awesome to see some familiar faces from Utah! I really miss that place!
(Here are some pics, sorry about the above novel! haha)
This is possibly a bullet hole in the picture frame at the hotel, I said it was ghetto!
Brother Eliason AKA the man in charge of Heritage tours!
Brother Pelo. He was our FAVORITE ht leader!
