Wichita Adventure: Part 2

I guess technically this should be Independence, MO adventure.

We figured that since we were fairly close to some Church history sites,

we'd go see them while we were there.

He'd never been to the sites, I'd gone with my family with my family when I was younger, it was fun to get to experience them together.

In Independence we were able to go to the Independence Visitor Center.

It was really neat, very interactive and fun.

One of the missionaries that showed us around used to be a Cougarette,

it was pretty funny because I thought to myself, she looks really familiar,

then my dear husband said, "Was she a cougarette?"

That's why she looked familiar! lol!

At the visitor center they had a cool exhibit there, it was a bunch of statues of Christ.

It was really neat, I should have taken some pictures, but I wasn't sure if I could.

So just, believe me that they were pretty.

After that we went to the Liberty Jail Visitor Center.

Apparently, this time of year is really slow, so we were the only ones in our tour.

It was really nice because we got to just sit and ponder and take in all the things to see at our own pace.

Here are a few pictures of the jail:

So pensive at Liberty Jail:

After church on Sunday we went to Far West and Adam-Ondi-Ahmen.

Once again, not many people there so we got to spend as much time as we wanted at each place.

One thing, I love about our church is that even though the temple site is pretty much in the middle of nowhere, there was still a clean HEATED restrooms!

Here's another picture of the temple site.

Then we went to Adam-Ondi-Ahmen.

This was one of my favorite places when I went with my family,

it's really neat because the acoustics at this place are so neat!

He said he could kind of hear me, but I remember it being crystal clear.

I wonder if the freezing air and the lack of leaves played into the reason why he couldn't hear me as well... who knows.

We still really liked seeing it.

A pretty sunset on our way back to Independence.

On Monday, before we left, we went on a walking tour of some history sites.

Well, we started out walking, but it started raining, so we turned it into a driving tour.. lol.

We also went to Kansas City and checked out a Harley-Davidson factory.

It was pretty cool, and now my sweet husband wants one

really badly.

I have to say, he looks pretty good on one... lol.

I'm not so sure if it really fits me though...
