As most of you know my father served a labor mission in Melbourne, Australia when I was 16 years of age. The whole family moved to Melbourne. We lived in a suburb called Mont Albert and attended church in the next eastern suburb, Box Hill. We lived in the old mission home which has since been torn down and multiple dwelling houses built on the property. The Blackburn Chapel sits on the property on Whitehorse Road where we attended church in an old run down house. On the Sunday we were in Melbourne we drove by where I lived, where I caught the train to school every morning and where I attended my last year and a half of hgih school. It truly was a trip down memory lane for me.

It's so cool that you got to see all these places. And even cooler that you have pictures. I don't suppose you were able to meet with anyone who remembered you or the family?
