Brigham City Mormon Temple

Today we travelled north in Utah on our way to stay at the Mendon home of Fraser's in laws Carlo and Sidne.
On our way there we met up with Carlo and Sidne in Brigham City. The reason for this was to see round the brand new Mormon Temple. Normally non Mormons are not allowed in the Temple but as it has not been consecrated yet we were allowed to see round the building. It was indeed very beautiful and not at all what I expected as the largest room was the marriage room with seating for about 70. There was also a splendid total immersion font built on the backs of 12 oxen. Unfortunately no photographs were allowed to be taken. The photograph shown was taken with my phone camera so not as good as I would have liked. Beautiful it may be but no comparison to our own buildings like York Minster.
