This week has been a good week. Nothing to exciting really happening. Yesterday was the first day that I have really felt like a missionary. Let me explain, We did the usual morning routine, we got up at 6:30 excercised and did our studies and finished that at about 11 when then had lunch and did a little bit of relaxing. At Noon we loaded our bikes up into our truck and headed over to the church from the church we rode our bikes around visiting people and trying to find new people to teach. We were on our bikes for just about 5 hours. I was a little sore. We rode I wanna say something like 12 to 15 miles. It was a long day but it definitely made it feel like I was a missionary. Oh also while we were out on our bikes there was grey clouds in the sky and it would rain every little while. It was a cool experiance.
We have been doing alot of things trying to find new investigators, Like walking around and all that good stuff, But no tracting. Last week while we were out walking around we met this guy out doing stuff in his yard, So we asked if we could help him. He looked at us and said he didnt want us to help because we were in nice clothes so we walked up and just started helping him while we were working he started asking us questions about what we were doing and all that good stuff. So we told him. But we didnt invite him to learn about the gospel right then. We went over 2 more times to do service and the third time we went over we asked if they would like to learn more. He said that they would talk it over as a family and let us know. They are a family of 4 the mom dad and then they have 2 daughters a junior and a freshman. I hope that they will want to know more we will just have to wait and see.
So I have a funny story for you, Last week while we were walking around we were walking in wine country and most of the house have gates on them. On one of the walls next to a gate there were 2 lizards and they were pretty good sized. As we were walking past I picked up a rock and tossed it at one of the lizards. When I threw it it didnt look like I was going to hit it but come to find out I did hit it and It died. It was pretty crazy.
This last Sunday was the first Sunday with our new Bishop. It was pretty cool. Its going to be a good change. I heard that we are going to be getting a new Bishop back home. Who do you think its going to be? any guesses? Thats going to be interesting coming home to a new Bishop.
So you want to get rid of dandilions do ya? well I believe there is some fertlizer weed killer in the garage. It should be in the cabinet in the front right at the bottom. (if you were looking into the garage from outside.) Or there is weed killer fertilzer that you could get at Home Depot that you hook up to the hose that you spray on and that should get rid of them, Other than that I dont have any magical secrets for that, Sorry.
The weather down here is definiteley starting to warm up, it is starting to get into the 90's. The weather here usually is in the 90's to the low 100's from about the end of May until September so thats going to be exciting to work in.
