From the Mouth of Jon

We are here in Michigan, together! I got in late last night and went to sleep to an incredible thunderstorm. It was really nice to see Rachael again. And her parents. Rachael went through the temple today and it was a really great experience. There were a bunch of people there from her ward to show their support, which was really awesome. We are looking forward to being in the San Diego temple soon with a bunch of friends and family for another great experience!

I had my first Coney Island experience today with Rachael and her parents. I had a Coney Burger, which was pretty delicious! Then we went to the Detroit Science Center and played with all of the fun science exhibits. Following our educational experiencec at the science center, we drove around Detroit and the surrounding areas. It really is a beautiful place! The economy has been hit really hard here, though, and there are abandoned houses and buildings EVERYWHERE. It's really sad, but it was fun to see.

We fly back to Utah tomorrow, which is sad, but we have some exciting experiences coming up soon..... We'll keep you posted!!!
