Stonehenge

We stopped at Stonehenge on the way to Matt's baptism. We have never stopped before. It is a fun place! It is a war memorial.
It is officially called Stonehenge Memorial , Mary hill, Washington. The Stonehenge Memorial was built by entrepreneur Sam Hill as a tribute to the soldiers of Klickitat County, Washington, who lost their lives in World War I. Sam Hill's Stonehenge is a full-scale replica of England's famous Stonehenge in Wiltshire (see "Stonehenge, Wiltshire, England" below). Hill was a Quaker pacifist.

The site also includes monuments to the soldiers of Klickitat County who died in World War II, Korea, and Viet Nam. Hill's own crypt is a short walk southwest of Stonehenge on a bluff overlooking the Columbia River.

Matt's Baptism

We went to Matt's baptism in Corvallis! There was one other 'child of record baptism". We waited in the chapel for the first baptism. Then they moved to the RS room and we had our baptism. The Bishop asked all 3 granddads to bear their testimonies. Then after the baptism, Andrew and the grand-mom's got to bear their testimonies. We went home to Ben and Lindsy's and had pulled pork and rolls, salad and a delicious chocolate cake! We are proud of our son for him to baptize his son. The circle of life continues.
