When getting lost while traveling to destinations, Lois said that they weren't lost it was a site-seeing detour. "We have more friends behind the veil than on this side, and they will hail us more joyfully than you were ever welcomed by your parents and friends in this world; and you will rejoice more when you meet them than you ever rejoiced to see a friend in this life; and then you shall go on from step to step, from rejoicing to rejoicing, and from intelligence and power to another, our happiness becoming more and more exquisite and sensible as we proceed to the words and powers of life." Brigham Young – July 31, 1850  J.D.
