Dearest Family,
So, how are things? Very well, I suppose? The weather here is still crazy! Sunday was a clear, beautiful day with sunshine shining on the world then...Monday night was pooring rain! I know, that happens in St. george too, but not like this! It was crazy cool! I thought I had seen some pretty good flash rain storms and loud thundar, but last night was insane! At first it was kind of like St. George, the clouds came in and it started pooring rain, out of nowhere. Then, in the middle of the night, I wake up to this "tic tic tic" on the window and a big, roar of thundar and I could here the wind out side rushing by! The hail didn't last very long, but the awesome thundar lasted all night! I never heard such loud thundar. It was pretty sweet. That's pretty much the coolest thing that happened this past week. Other than that, just the regular missionary stuff; walking, talking, and teaching. No new people. Oh, but we did get a cell phone, so we don't have to go back to our appt. to make a call. One rule with it is, we are supposed to be conspicuous with it and aren't supposed to walk around with it in our hands or talk on it public areas. My companion had a reawakening of that rule on Sunday. haha! He was walking down the street and he pulled it out of his pocket, so I said "conspicuous, elder!" (I told him that because he's always shoving rules at me, so I figured, eh, I'll remind him of one). So, he glares at me, like whatever man! No more than a few seconds go by, while he's looking down at the phone, and he smashes his face right into a low branch of a tree and cuts open his nose. haha! That'll teach him! It was a fat tree branch too! like the size of my thigh. I feel kind of bad though because it looked like it hurt really bad.My companion and I, also met a crazy man yesterday. We were walking down the street and this guy looks at me as he passes and says, "hey, you look pretty tall. Do you play basketball?" I told him, "a little..." Then, before I even finish talking he starts talking again, "you should go to the University, you know, right over there. Go to the gym, right now. Go in you shirt and tie, all dressed up. Go to the gym, you understand!?" And I said, "why?" and he just storms off. What in the world! Yeah, he's crazy.Anyway, no new investigators, just some crazy stuff. Yo Jeff,Did you get that last e-mail? I gave your number to them (313-7643), so you should be getting a call soon. Also, could you put my baseball mit in the package as well(either the first baseman's mit or the one with my name on it). It should be in your blue baseball bag, which is either at your home or in my room. Could you also put some of my no-sho white socks in there. Those would be in my top dresser droor. And possibly, those Rug Rats sheets on my bed. Sorry, that's a lot of stuff, but it would be nice to have all that and its a free because that guy, Brian, I think is his name, I forgot, is coming here this week.Thanks for everything! Love ya!
