  • Took a Hike

    Yeah, we really did take a hike. This morning. Up a small mountain. It was good fun. Anyway, this week has been pretty good. It wasn’t quite as amazing as last week, but still rather enjoyable. We had Zone Conference on Wednesday, which was very enjoyable, even though we did get a little rebuking (for…

  • Spectaculus

    Why hello, everybody! This week has been spectacular, I have to say. You see, we’ve had quite a few good things happen. First off, I believe that I mentioned last week that we were going to have a baptism on Saturday. Well, it turned out that her daughters also decided to be baptized, so we…

  • “Time flies like an arrow… Fruit flies like a banana”

    That there quote is from good ‘ole Groucho Marx. I thought that it was funny, so I used it. This week has been pretty jolly good. We’ve done quite a bundle of exciting things, and we had one of our investigators tell us, quite randomly, that she would like to be baptized this upcoming Saturday.…

  • Corn Chips are no place for a Mighty Warrior

    Sorry, I just figured that I’d try something funny and random for the title this week, so there you have it. If I remember correctly, it comes from Homestar Runner. Anyway, this week has been pretty exciting. First off, and most importantly, we got transfer news… Anyone want to hazard a guess at what is…

  • The Clouds are Taunting Us…

    I couldn’t think of a much better title for this week’s email, as per the fact that there are clouds surrounding us just about every night, but the most that we ever get is a puny sprinkle. We can see lightning every few seconds, but it almost never comes near us… Anyway, we always just…

  • Walk the Dog…

    Sorry that I forgot my camera so I can’t include the picture, but we saw quite the sight this week… A dog being walked… By a treadmill. The owners had tied the leash so that the dog had just about no slack whatsoever, and so it was stuck walking, and walking… It didn’t look like…

  • Well, this week not too much horribly exciting stuff happened. I mean, it was a good week, but it was pretty much ordinary as far as missionary work goes. We had our English class on Tuesday night, which was pretty good. I had been having a great time teaching it the last few weeks, but…

  • Still Hot as… a Hot Thing…

    Hello everyone! So, this week not much exciting stuff happened. We taught some great lessons, and managed to find 5 new investigators. (That’s amazing for this area) But, on the other side of things, we had (a very dismal) one investigator at church. We’re not sure what happened with the Valles family, because they’ve been…

  • Shpiffy!

    So, yeah… This week has been pretty good. It’s been different to not have good ‘ole Elder King around, but Elder Robinson is a pretty neat guy. We’ve been having a good time. He’s from Idaho Falls, Idaho, and we’ve been having a fun time together. Anyway, there wasn’t much too spectacular that happened this…

  • Off to Payson With Him!

    So, yeah… Transfers are coming up next week, and on Friday night Elder King got a call, saying that he’ll be headed off to Payson starting tomorrow. He’s going to be the only Spanish-speaking missionary up in Payson, becase there are less hispanics up there than there were when I was there. So, he’ll be…
