This
was
a
wonderful,
free
tour
where
you
can
visit
several
locations
that
are
all
within
a
short
walk
of
one
another.
It
is
a
guided
tour
with
missionaries,
and
they
share
inspirational
stories
of
things
that
happened
in
these
locations
among
the
early
Saints.
There
is
also
a
video
that's
about
25
minutes
long
that
can
only
be
viewed
here
(as
of
now).
It's
about
the
Whitneys
and
their
faith,
as
well
as
that
of
other
early
Saints.
During
the
tour,
you
get
to
see
the
Newel
K.
Whitney
store,
the
Whitney
home,
the
Kirtland
Sawmill
and
Ashery,
and
the
Kirtland
Schoolhouse.
They're
also
working
on
a
restoration
of
Joseph
and
Emma
Smith's
home
while
they
were
there,
which
should
be
done
August
of
2023.
Some
of
the
flooring
and
other
items
in
these
buildings
are
original.
Newel
K.
Whitney
even
kept
a
detailed
record
of
everything
he
ever
bought
or
sold,
so
the
items
in
the
store,
though
most
not
original,
are
items
he
actually
sold
there.
They
also
let
you
go
upstairs
and
see
where
some
of
the
Church
leaders
met,
including
the
room
for
the
School
of
the
Prophets.
My
kids
and
parents
and
I
really
enjoyed
the
whole
tour.
It
strengthened
our
faith.
