Safe Arrival

They have arrived safe and well in "Iowa City", the starting point for many of the handcart pioneers. After a long bus ride, they arrived happy and cheerful. The families are getting along well. Tents are up, and everyone feasted on a hearty meal of BBQ beef, potato salad, and grapes.

Following family devotionals, they are bedded down for the night. "Taps" at 11pm.

Tomorrow morning, they will visit the "Bishop's Storehouse" for supplies before heading out. The first company will leave at 8am, with companies departing every 30 minutes thereafter.

Enjoy the pictures!
