Our P-day group went on a tour of Quincy. We were led by a district temple worker, Brother Gentry. Brother Gentry was born and raised in Quincy and showed us places we would not have known about. We started at the John Wood Mansion and Museum. John Wood was an early governor of Illinois. The house has been beautifully restored and there are several interesting pieces of furniture. There is a desk that was used by John Quincy Adams before he went into politics. We can't help comparing the stuff we see with what is in Nauvoo. This house is well done - as well as Nauvoo. The group beginning in the back: Wayne and me, Susan and Lynn Cottrell, down one step, Bill and Margo Schultz, down one step, Burt and Chris Wasson, bottom: Blaine and Justine Seamons and Sandy and Wynn Farnsworth.
