One of the opportunities we have is to go with a group of other missionaries and do "Nauvoo on the Road." We travel to events and set up our interactive display of weaving, rope making, toys and games. When people come and get involved in our activities, we talk to them about Nauvoo and invite them to come.
On October 5th we were in Donnelson, Iowa for their annual Pumpkin Days. It is a farm/gift shop/play area. It's really an event set up for families. There are a lot of activities for children. There are a lot of pumpkins, gourds and squash for sale. My husband can't go to an event like this and not buy something memorable. I know this pumpkin will rot and I'll have to throw it away, but for now it sits by our door. I think the young ladies that painted it did an amazing job. I love it!
One more Nauvoo on the Road next week and things can be put away until next year. There's one this week but we don't have to go. We're on for the 19th in Hannibal, MO. No big surprise why we got assigned to go to that one.
