We were able to meet many people who came from all over. We told them we were on the epic family tour and that we are at 4300 miles on the trip odometer. We should finish out at about 7000 miles.
I noted that there were 8 pointed stars on the decor (to one of the ladies assisting in the temple) and mentioned that I had just found out that they represent Melchizedek, just as the six-pointed star represents Judah. I was gently corrected (when I asked if that was not indeed the case), that a visiting GA had been asked the same question and this patron was told that it was a mere decoration. So, back to the drawing board on that notion. I will find some more info and pass it along. I do not like passing along false info – and try to correct as much as I can. I blogged it after visiting the San Diego Temple where it is extremely prevalent.
Lovely temple! The spire reminded me of the lighthouse/library at Alexandria. I was told by the assisting brethren that it was modeled after the Soldier’s and Sailor’s Monument in Indianapolis:
Here is the Temple:
