Going to the Temple

Since we have been here in Ann Arbor, we have been able to go to the Detroit temple a few times. It is a quaint little temple, it takes about 45 minutes to get there from our house, and it is pleasant. So far, the Saturday 8:00 AM sessions are fairly empty, and it is nice. While it is a small temple, what it lacks in size, it makes up for in personalness. The first time I went, the temple president greeted me as I both went in, and out. You have to make an appointment, so they have your name on list, like they are waiting for you, so eager for you to come. And, because there are fewer people (at least in the sessions we have gone to), it is quicker. While Provo averages around 1:43 to get through a session, the first session we did took about 1:33. Impressive. Here is a picture we got someone to take of Stacey and I in front of the temple, and one of Stacey, looking very pretty with the yellow flowers. As you can tell, we were looking into a very bright sun.
