I think that is a common response among LDS people. It would be an amazing thing to be there. Although, I am perfectly content living in the time that we live in and I can't really think of anyother time that I would like to visit. I love reading things that happened in history, but I wouldn't really want to be there witnessing it. I think I would prefer to travel into the future to the second coming. When we can be reunited with our loved ones again. And to feel the love and peace that will be with all of us.Daley Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07234157922637505939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-79648352237258251982009-02-24T13:14:00.000-07:002009-02-24T13:14:00.000-07:00I love the Anne of Green Gables series and have al...I love the Anne of Green Gables series and have always been fascinated with visiting PEI. It would be especially awesome to go back and experience it as Anne would have - their dress, way of life, etc.Danyelle Fergusonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00006907198681924095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-10769394848252484392009-02-24T00:22:00.000-07:002009-02-24T00:22:00.000-07:00Excellent question!

My number one choice for spiritual would be when the Lord visits the americas and then right after he leaves. When it is a time of peace. I find that would be one of the greastest places to be, I think.<BR/>My number one for fun would be in europe, in present time, touring it and seeing all the historical and fashion sites. <BR/>My number one for family history would be in the 1950's 1960'a, while my grandfather was alive. I never met, but I have always felt a kinship to him and would have love to met him!SSvedinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06268346678878922816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-89711593359212578162009-02-23T20:32:00.000-07:002009-02-23T20:32:00.000-07:00My first thought would be a child living in Bounti...My first thought would be a child living in Bountiful at Christ's coming and to have Him bless me and see angels.

Maybe the early colonial period for the United States. How cool would it be to see George Washington cross the Delaware, to go along with Paul Revere, or to watch the discussions about what should and should not be in the constitution. But honestly, that is just one example of all the things I would love to be able to witness. My list could go on for quite some time!battrawshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493853497378651947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-35004139928871492052009-02-18T22:31:00.000-07:002009-02-18T22:31:00.000-07:00If I could visit any time, I'd love to visit with ...If I could visit any time, I'd love to visit with each of my grandparents. They all passed on when I was too young to have a real appreciation of their wisdom, and none of them kept journals, but I would love to have a conversation with each of them as an adult.Stephanie Humphreyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13553998075443712084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-54516398224539081972009-02-18T21:06:00.000-07:002009-02-18T21:06:00.000-07:00hmm, being a history major makes this question har...hmm, being a history major makes this question hard to answer. There are so many awesome things to see! Walking through the original Roman Forum, or Palatine hill in all of its splendor--wow. The original Temple in Jerusalem would be interesting to see. Hearing the real live voices of Abraham Lincoln or Cicero. Everyone likes to choose Book of Mormon times to go back to, but I'd like to see stuff from the New Testament, and the Early Church. What would it be like to attend a church meeting where John the Beloved was talking about the Savior? So freakin' cool! It would also be cool to follow the savior around for a day during his mortal ministry, see how he interacted with people, and what he spoke about.Gamilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15036914988897590304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-91331452052345394112009-02-17T01:29:00.000-07:002009-02-17T01:29:00.000-07:00I've thought about this a lot, even before reading...I've thought about this a lot, even before reading your question, Jennie. Yeah, it would be cool to hide in the Sacred Grove and watch Joseph Smith having the First Vision, or to be among the Nephites when Christ came, but maybe an experience like that would change my life in a way that I'm not (yet) prepared to handle. So I'm going to go with something more mundane, I'm afraid -- popping in on the Jaredites every so often as they work their way from the Tower of Babel to the seashore. I'd love to have a few questions answered, such as how many people started out with them as compared to how many people finished the actual journey, or why did it <I>seem</I> that Jared always had to give his brother a swift kick in the rear end before he actually got up and did something. Or was that just the way it came across because Jared was the one writing the journal? Anyway, I'd definitely skip the year in the barge, (I don't exactly get seasick, I just get sick of being on the sea) but I'd be happy to watch as they disembarked in the Promised Land and got things set up there. And find out what happened to the lights. *g*Melanie Goldmundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00270135660110676225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5903188381073271553.post-14600613578215361292009-02-16T23:27:00.000-07:002009-02-16T23:27:00.000-07:00Oh good, I get to go first.

I think it would be very difficult times considering all the terrible disasters that just took place, but to be able to see the Savior and be with him would beat anything in this world. Not to mention all they heard and witnessed, and to be able to be blessed by the Savior himself would be so incredible. So that would be my choice. <BR/><BR/>How could I possibly choose between those 3 books? They all sound good. I guess I would like the one with the guys that travel back in time. I like time travel books. That idea has always fascinated me.Haiku Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06935235354427184103noreply@blogger.com
