With Charity and Family to Mormon Trail Center at Winter Quarters Visitor Center.

 One of our favorite stops in Omaha is the Mormon Trail Visitor Center where we can try out the handcarts both inside and outside.  It is a fun place.  I was disappointed to learn that someone had stolen many of the bronze plaques to melt them down for money.  Such a loss and waste.  We walked through the cemetery.  The temple is next to the cemetery.
