This is Sunday and it has been amazing. The spirit that was in our Fast and Testimony meeting was phenomenal. We were on duty at the site from 1:30 until 5:00. I had two tours. Four in one...all non-members and two in the other...both non-members. I testified of the fact that Joseph was a prophet of God and that he restored the Gospel for this dispensation. After the first tour, I stepped outside with them as they walked up to the Monument. This is what I saw and thanks to my Droid, I caught this...something I have been waiting for for a long time. We are told in the dedicatory prayer that was given by Joseph Smith Jr.'s nephew...Joseph F. Smith declared among other things that the monument would never see the effects of the elements. It wouldn't shine like this if there had been any weathering. It is almost 106 years old. I hope you enjoy as much as I do.
