Road Trip Day 3
Sunday May 31st, our first stop was at Winter Quarters which is pretty close to Omaha. We got a tour of the visitors center then were able to walk around the Pioneer Cemetary which has over 600 pioneers buried there. There temple is built right next to the cemetary. Then we went to Council Bluffs, Iowa to the Kanesville Tabernacle which had lot of stuff about the Morman Battalion. 

We then drove along the Morman Pioneer Trail route to Nauvoo. You could stop and see many sites that the pioneers saw along their journey if you wanted. We stopped and saw the last original ruts that were formed by the pioneers. There pretty hard to see in the picture, but in person you can see the big ruts in the ground. Then we drove on to Nauvoo, IL.
