We are kept busy in the winter to prepare for guests in the summer.
The 'Webb Blacksmith Shop' makes thousands of 'horse shoe nail rings' (which is spoken of as the "Prairie Diamond")duriong the winter months, what a fun ring to wear on your finger, and then they make a small horse shoe, which they make at each demonstration.
Elder Williams organizes 13 'Wagon Rides' each day (every half hour) from 8 am to 3 pm. Each wagon carries 25 people, is that about 325 people. And then 7 carriage rides a day which takes about 175 people. There are 31 teamsters and 18 head of horses. Over 500 people go on these rides each day during the summer months.
The summer time is here now, so as well as being ready for our guests, Nauvoo is also ready with a beautiful array of colors. What a gorgeous place to be.

Too bad your camper-down tree is still a pile of sticks. Maybe it will have green by the time you get back.
