While at Rock Creek Hollow late in the afternoon on Saturday after all the youth groups had left, in rode a wagon pulled by three mules. Buck and Nick Rucker from back east. Buck is a journalist who is writing a book about the Oregon Trail. What better way to know the trail than to ride the trail with wagon and mules. We invited them to share our evening meal. We enjoyed conversation and then took him to find the Oregon trail up out of RCH and into Willow Creek. Afterwards we gave him a tour of the Memorial site and amphitheaters and share testimony of the temple and the blessing of forever families. He said how impressed he was with what we do here and how great the Mormons have helped preserve the Oregon Trail. In the morning when we woke, they had already left and were on their way to Oregon.
