On our 3rd and final day of driving, we stopped off at Temple Square in Salt Lake.
We visited the Assembly Hall first.
Evan was complaining and grumpy the entire time.
Hailey was a little bit too.
It was nice to stop and visit though.
The Assembly Hall seating is actually pretty cramped. I thought it was funny that the pillars go right through pews, or that there is seating right behind pillars. Here you can see how the 2nd story is slanted.
It is a beautiful historic building though.
Temple Square is under construction, including the Salt Lake Temple and grounds right now. So really it was just the Assembly Hall and Tabernacle that were open.
The iconic Tabernacle organ.

Time to head back to the car and continue the drive.
It was nice of Richard and Camille to have us over for lunch at their house.
We also stopped over at Pocatello to visit the BYU Idaho campus after another hour and a half drive.
We walked around the campus and gardens for a while.
We then stopped off at the cafeteria and let the kids play air hockey and pool for a bit.
Evan has all sorts of BYU gear: shirt, hat, sweater, tie, tie clip, pendant, stickers.
It was good for them to come see the Rexburg campus and have some fun.
Plus, they need to get out and take a break from all the driving.
About another hour until we reached the cabin at Island Park, where we met up with the rest of my family.
