What we stumbled upon was a rare Antique shop. We started talking to the store owner about all the unique antiques he had. Come to find out he owned a first edition Book of Mormon. Not many people ever have the opportunity to see one of these books in their life time; yet we got to not only see but hold and thumb through the pages.
It was amazing to think about the person that owned this book and the state of the Church at that time. Little did the world or that person know the impact this book would have on his life or the world at large.
Not only did this man own a first edition Book of Mormon but he also had an original page of the Gutenberg Bible printed in 1455. This is page looked perfect! I could not believe it I was looking at one of the first books ever printed.
The man himself, Brent Ashworth. This man had stories to tell! Pat and I stayed there for a good hour and were loving ever second. This day was a memorable day as we were able to hold history.
So, your hair is dark again?
