The Birthplace of a Prophet

We loved visiting the birthplace of Joseph Smith in Sharon, Vermont.  Here are some of the pictures we took.  If you'd like to read more about it you can read our Missionary Moments #6.

Joseph Smith Memorial

Sister Missionaries escorted us through the exhibits

The flowers were beautiful as were the trees all around

This was the outline of the foundation of the cabin

The base and obelisk was 50 feet high

Building on right was the exhibit, left was missionary housing

The colors are fading now but still quite beautiful
