Memorial Day: Hunting Graves

Salt Lake City, Utah

On Memorial Day I went with the Smiths to the Salt Lake Cemetery to visit Wayne.

Once there some from the group wanted to find some other relatives who passed away so we started a grave hunt.

We started with relatives, and continued with prophets…

Actually we intended to find Gordon B. Hinckley’s grave…but it’s tarted raining so we left.

It was fun though.
