Hill Cumorah Visitor's Center

 In one of my other posts I wrote about 'the Christus'.  You see the Christus through a beautiful window from the street as you drive by.  It is really inspiring.  By the time we got down from the Hill Cumorah, it was raining, so I didn't get any outside shots of the building.
 There is an exhibit room with the story of the First Vision, the collection of the plates from the Hill Cumorah, and 110 copies of the Book of Mormon (representing each language it is translated in currently), etc.  This is one of the statues in the room. I wish it had turned out better but such is life.
This is a stained glass window that is in the exhibit hall.  While we were in the building, we watched a new film on the family that was just beautiful. After we had attended the temple that morning, it rained intermittently all day.  We were lucky enough that it seemed to rain just as we headed inside or to the car.  We stayed in the Visitor's Center until the rain passed and then head the actual hill.  I will post pictures of that tomorrow.
