Does anyone know which LDS temples don’t have an angel Moroni? I know this one, Mesa, AZ, and Laie, HI, don’t. Are there any others?

Here’s a cool tidbit: A brother at the temple told me the orb on the pinnacle of this temple is a (symbolic) urim and thummim.

I went to Canada for the first time last week (and visited my cousins in British Columbia). We stayed a night in Cardston, and arrived just before the sun went down.

It’s a beautiful temple. I wish I’d had more time for a wider variety of shots. I do have one more on the way though…

Also, my family and I just watched the Joseph Smith movie on YouTube. It’s an excellent way to spend an FHE. The updated version is narrated by Joseph’s mother, Lucy Mack Smith (and it removes the parts about the British convert). It’s a little more factual and less emotional, but in a good way. It would be a great way to introduce some of the church’s basic teachings to a friend.
