This is the Place

 A couple of weeks ago Dave and I stopped by the 'This is the Place' State Park. The story goes that when Brigham Young and the first pioneers arrived in the SLC valley, he said "This is the right place, drive on."



This is a plaque listing all the Handcart Companies. My ancestors we part of the Martin Handcart Company, which is the most famous and had the most deaths. My family was lucky to survive with no deaths or injuries.
