When I went by the Visitor's Center earlier today, I learned that they are going to pull out all the flowers and greenery next week to plant the bulbs for next spring! I am so sad. I LOVE flowers and greenery and everything is soooo beautiful and lush right now in Nauvoo. 

So I went around the Visitor's Center snapping as many pictures as I could to remember this coming winter what it looked like. To show you what I mean, and for contrast, I have included a photo of the day I arrived here in Nauvoo as a full time missionary out in front of this Visitor's Center - April 4th!

See how bare the flower beds behind me are? This is what they are all going to look like next week!
