Seattle Washington Temple
I knew it was going to be a good trip to the Seattle Washington Temple when the folks at Spirit Airlines gave me an exit row aisle seat at the gate. Prior to that I had a middle seat. The fact that the round-trip air …

Tucson Arizona Temple
Have done five initiatory names in the Gila Valley Arizona Temple, I made a mad dash 140 miles to the Tucson Arizona Temple. My goal was to make the 7:30 session. I drove 85 miles an hour along Interstate 10 and arrived at the temple …
Gila Valley Arizona Temple
Having done two initiatory names at the Snowflake Arizona Temple, it was now on to the Gila Valley Arizona Temple (another 177 miles) to repeat the performance, hopefully with a few more names! I saw from a distance what appeared to be an old tabernacle …
Snowflake Arizona Temple
Like all great temple trips, it starts with a good airfare. In this case it was $170 round-trip from Washington DC to Phoenix. The plan was pretty aggressive: arrive in Phoenix at 7:30 AM, visit the Snowflake, Gila Valley, and Tucson temples all in one …
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 …

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 …
Vernal Utah Temple
It all started with the airfare—$156 round-trip from Washington DC to Salt Lake City. I came out to wine and dine my 88-year old mother for her birthday. I told her she got to choose whatever she wanted to do. She chose to go to …
Columbia South Carolina Temple
It would be my final and seventh temple in the last five days. I drove here from Atlanta this morning. The trick would be to make it before they close. Their last endowment session starts at 2:30 PM. I got there at 3:10 PM. But …
Atlanta Georgia Temple
There’s a lot of healing that takes place inside a temple owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, including spiritual healing, emotional healing, and even physical healing. Well apparently that healing also applies to the parking lot. For about 1200 miles on …
