Jordan River Temple

The Jordan River Temple is the most frequented LDS Temple in the world. In order to relieve the strain and provide further opportunities for members to attend, two more Temples, Draper and Oquirrh Mountain, have been constructed in close proximity and a new Temple, Daybreak, is under construction. I opted to go early in the day when it would be less busy. I caught the Jodi express to the front of the Temple and arranged when we would meet for the return journey before she departed. Despite being open from 5am, the Temple was getting busy at 8am, mostly with people going before work and those who were not in full time employment. Due to the size of Jordan River Temple there are escalators and Temple reception workers to aid with the flow of people through this exalted edifice. I felt at peace as I served in the Temple and cherished the opportunity of spending an entire day within its walls. I took a short break for lunch and, fortunately, the sun was shining so I seized the opportunity of taking some photographs while the weather was favourable. This was most fortunate as when I exited the Temple there was a snow storm coming over the mountains and this resulted in a rather cold walk to fetch some dinner. The weather here is somewhat similar to England at times!
