Chicago Illinois Temple
My 50th temple! I knew it was going to be a good day when I saw my buddy Al Jackson at the BWI airport this morning. He’s so cool he looks great even from the back… I left BWI at 7 AM and arrived at …

Dallas Texas Temple
My visit to the Dallas Texas Temple once again starts with the airfare. This time it was a $102 round-trip ticket to Dallas from Baltimore on Spirit Airlines. At that price it gave me a chance to visit the Dallas Temple economically. A Chance to …
Boston Massachusetts Temple
It’s hard to argue with a $70.02 round-trip airfare from Washington DC to Boston. So I didn’t argue; I just went. My alarm went off at 3:30 AM. At 4 AM I was on the road. I arrived at BWI airport at 4:50 AM. At …
Palmyra New York Temple
I was supposed to be in Detroit today, visiting the Detroit Michigan Temple. Accordingly I arrived at the Baltimore Washington International airport around 6:30 AM in order to catch my 8 o’clock flight. It would arrive in Detroit around 10 AM. The temple doesn’t open …

It was about 190 miles from the Nashville Tennessee Temple to the Birmingham Alabama Temple. I arrived at about 2:30 and the first session wasn’t until 6 PM so we had a few hours to take a nap. I cleared out the area behind the …
Nashville Tennessee Temple
I drove about 190 miles last night from Louisville Kentucky to Nashville Tennessee. When I arrived it was 1:30 in the morning. I pulled into the empty stake center parking lot and parked under a tree. I cleared out the back of my …
Louisville Kentucky Temple
This third temple of the day was going to be a make-it-or-break-it effort. If I got out of the Indianapolis Temple in time and the traffic was favorable I might make it for the latter part of the day in the Louisville Kentucky Temple but …
