Kirkland

This past weekend we road-tripped to Kirkland, Ohio; a small town just east of Cleveland which from 1831 to 1838, was one of the first gathering places and headquarters of the saints. Significantly the first temple of this dispensation was built, key revelations received and organizational developments occurred, as well as a financial fiasco resulting in early apostasy. It became a stepping stone as opposed to a stumbling block for the young church.

It is a beautiful part of the country and ideal for a fall weekend jaunt. We visited near by Morely farm, and the stone quarry, and the pleasant little town of Kirkland
