I lived my first 16 years in the eastern US, far from REAL Mormonism. Though we had a good ward with many transplants from Zion, it seemed there was something lacking. Certainly things were better in Utah.
Then Dad retired and we moved back to the mother ship. Now I would experience The Church® in its full glory! Instead of being only one of three Mormons in my high school, I'd be surrounded by super-righteous Saints. Yay!
Man, what a letdown. You know how cruise ships look all white and gleaming out in the harbor? But then you get next to it and you see the corrosion, rust and barnacles. That's how it was in Zion. Even my Utah-born parents were disappointed.
