Walking to the car, my wife and I reflected on the rapidly approaching end of our full-time parenting. There have been times of joy. There have been times of sorrow.

The stories surrounding Porter Rockwell, an early Church member and a larger-than-life character in Church history, are varied and fantastic. For example, did he really try to break Joseph Smith out of Liberty Jail? Was he truly the first Latter-day Saint to hunt bison on the Great Plains?
