Good Signs:
- Welcome to Ontario! We just crossed the border at about 1 PM. When he saw our tags, the agent who checked our passports asked us where we were going for our mission. When we seemed surprised, he said, "I'm a Mormon. You won't have to explain to me why you are here and what you are doing." Between that blessing and a short "queue," we were given our paperwork in only 45 minutes.
- Historic Kirtland. Had a wonderful experience at the visitors center yesterday. My ancestor, Edward Partridge, had the first bishop's storehouse in part of the Whitney Store; Clyde's ancestor, Israel Barlow, had many entries in the purchase record displayed at the store. The Spirit was strong in that place where so many revelations were given. The Packers, from our MTC district, will arrive here soon for their mission.
- Falls Ahead! We also took time for a short jaunt to Niagara Falls yesterday. They are spectacular and we had a young couple, members from New Jersey, talk to us. I was here years ago on a seminary trip and Clyde had never been before.
- End construction. We have seen enough Road Work Ahead, Construction Zone, and Reduced Speed Limit signs to last a lifetime. Apparently Utah isn't the only place that loves orange cones.
- Holiness to The Lord. Had a tender time at the Montreal Temple tonight. This is close to one of Clyde's missionary apartments from 45 years ago. He was choked up that they now have a temple--something he never imagined would happen.
