Bountiful Utah Temple

Here I am in the land of Bountiful,
at one of many beautiful temples in the state of Utah.

I was on the road, so I didn't get to stay at this
temple for long. I hope to visit it again someday. In the meantime, I am gearing up for a nice long trip to Texas
where I am going to visit the Dallas Temple.

TTFN!

Dallas Texas Temple

Here I am at the unique Dallas Texas Temple.

These are my new friends, Blaze and Rylee.
They were having a picnic on the temple grounds with their mother.

 

I am so photogenic, don't you think?

    

Speaking of photogenic, 
I love posing with beautiful girls,
even if a couple of them are sister missionaries
and should be keeping me at arm's length.

    

I've noticed that all the temples have these same
words on them. "Holiness to the Lord."

 

  

Oh, these fountains are so tempting on warm sunny days!
But they are there to remind us of living waters,
not to be used as a swimming pool.

 

On the way out, I stopped and chatted with this nice group of ladies.
One of them was visiting the temple for the first time.

And now that my Texas visit got me used to the heat,
I think I will bounce over to the new Ft. Lauderdale Temple.

TTFN!

Ft. Lauderdale Florida Temple

Here I am at one of the newest temples,
the Ft. Lauderdale Florida Temple.
I visited this temple with the help of some friends of my owner,
the Littlefield family. They were awesome hosts!

Come on in! We'd love to show you the temple!
These pictures were taken during the temple open house.
When there is an open house, anyone can take a tour
and see what the inside of a temple looks like.
Then it is dedicated and you have
to have a special pass, called a Temple Recommend,
to be able to go inside.

This pool and fountain was so refreshing,
I was tempted to take a swim!

I wish I could have stayed for the
dedication of this temple.

And check it out!
The nice people took me out to dinner,
and I got to eat for free!

I like to talk to  waitresses about my
 travels to the temples.

This is Alison and her husband Miles.
My owner used to be her Primary leader.

This is their little baby Adelaide.
Grandpa Doug tried to get into the picture,
 but I was too fast for him.
 I photobombed the photobomber!
It pays to be bouncy!

This is Katherine, another one of my
new friends who helped show me around.

And while I am here,
I think I will accept the invitation
to go to the Orlando Temple with a youth group.

 TTFN!

Orlando Florida Temple

Here I am at the Orlando Florida Temple.
After seeing the new Ft. Lauderdale Temple,
I got to visit this one with a group of young people.

Sign sitting is one of my favorite things,
so you know I was really here.
No Photoshopping for me.

This is a special temple to me.
My owner lived in Florida when it was built
and she went here with her missionary son.

I was here with a group of youth from south Florida.
That's my friend, Steven, holding me.



I love temple flowers!
Every temple garden is different.



The Orlando Temple is up on a hill.
It isn't easy to find hills in Florida,
but they found one!




Look at all these young people!
I hope they all remember to come back when
they are grown.  Can you see me?
 It is kind of hard to spot me, but if you find Steven,
I'm right there with him.



I know! This one looks like I'm trying to
photobomb the temple.
I get so excited when I am at a temple,
I just can't help myself.
