Kirtland was a lot different than I remembered. The temple was a good experience for me this time. I hate to admit it, but previously when I have been there I have felt awkward. This time was a really good experience. Guess what? The temple used to be a gray blue color. The plaster (including the smashed China) was created to resemble the local stone. Yeah it seems weird they didn't just leave the stone. In fact they even painted faux mortar lines...
We spent time at the Newel K. Whitney Store and historic Kirtland and in Hiram on the John Johnson farm--which was so incredible. We were sitting in the room where the visions of heaven were opened up to the Prophet and Sidney. The Lord appeared to His servants in that room! The Spirit was there! Joseph Smith truly was a prophet!
