Places to see where there's not really anything to see

Joe and I decided to do some more tourism while we're still here. Yesterday was Joe's day off, so we went to Far West to see the cornerstones laid by the pioneers for a temple that was never built, to Haun's Mill where the only marker is a gravestone that isn't legible any more, and to Adam-ondi-Ahman where there's just a big beautiful field. It took us all afternoon to drive out to the middle of nowhere to see them (seriously, Joe almost killed another oil pan on one of the roads), but we were glad we did. Our only regret was not doing some research about the sites before we left. It would have been really cool to read about each of the sites in the car before seeing them.

That is very beautiful. I was just reading in Docterine and Covenants about Adam-ondi-Ahman and it is how I imagined. Lucky!!
