Subject: Week 5 Transfers are coming up
From: samuel.crapo@myldsmail.net
Dear Family And Friends,
Its been another week and they seem to be flying by, There wasnt much that stood out this week... Other than we still have bed bugs... they are slowly dying but pretty much still have them. But since i have only 30 minutes left let me tell ya about my week!
Monday 1-23-12
I didnt write a journal for this date... Sorry, i'm sure it was a boring P-day because i cant remember it haha.
Tuesday 1-24-12
When we woke up there were like two rivers on each side of the street! It was pretty sweet. They were draining some pipes down the road so it was a TON of water. We had a whole bunch of Oranges left over from picking them from a service project so we rolled them out of our apartment and into the road, the rivers took them down stream. We wondered how far they would go so we got on our bikes to catch up with them, but some guy was picking them up and putting them in his car haha it was pretty funny! We must have made his day!
Then we went to see an investigator, and we read a few scriptures with him... It went really good.
Then we saw Brother Penrod, he's always good to go see. He tells us funny stories and what not.
THen we went and had lunch... Mac and cheese i think? I have mac n cheese so much... its not even funny.
Then we went to another investigators house and just spoke with her at the door because her husband wasnt home.
We didnt really get to see anyone, we only got to talk to people at the door.
We went to our apartment to change because brother Brown needed our help to do a service project... but as soon as we had changed he called us up and cancelled on us... grrrr... so then we went to Sister Starns house with Brother Anderson and fixed up the rest of her door. Now all it needs is some Caulking done and we will be all finished up!
Then we went to brother Skinners house for dinner. He always has way good dinners because he's the big hunter guy, we had Deer and Bear for dinner. MMMMMMmmm SO gooooood! We sat around there for a while listening to his good old stories.
I'm still really itching :( I got bed bug bites all over and i cant help to itch that i must itch in my sleep so when i wake up i have little cuts from scratching so much.
Wednesday 1-25-12
We had district meeting
Then we ate lunch at Taco Bell. The first time this transfer! They brought the Crunch burrito back, the one that has the spicy frito chips in it! YUM. Reminds me of Tehachapi.
Then we went contacting people and there really wasntanyone home :( We went back to that lady we spoke to at the door, but her husband wasnt there still... so we just talked to her at the door again. She agreed for us to send her daily scriptures through texts :D
Then we rode up big sky, long ride, to a Part Member family, they were pretty cool. I guess the Husband who is not a member travels a lot because he works for America's Got Talent. SO thats cool
The Weather was warm and windy. So it was not a fun bike ride, both ways, going downhill was boring because of all the wind resistance.
Then we saw Chelsea, and had a good meeting with her. When we were there we could hear helicopters and stuff in the air, and when we went home the whole street was cut off with caution tape. I guess a lady got murdered down our street by her husband... .Bad deal. It was pretty cool though. We almost made the news here! We went to a members house and i video'd the news broadcast. I sent the article to dad and a map to illustrate how close the murder was to our house. It was pretty intense.
Then we went to dinner at the Darley's house. Brother Darley is awesome. He had a huge branch blow off his tree in his back yard so we told him we would come cut it up for him the next day.
Then we pretty much spent the rest of the time with the Regis' Their house connects to the people that the lady got killed by her husband. You could look in the backyard and see all the cops and forensics back there! SWEEEEET!
Thursday 1-26-12
We contacted a new investigator and he was pretty sweet. Very Sincere. But he said he probably wouldnt be converted. He lives with a family that goes to the Cornerstone Church (great and spacious building) But he is YSA Age so we had to give him up the the ZL's.
Then we went to brother Darley's and cut up that branch for him. It was a huge branch. Some of the branches connecting to it went into the groud a whole foot! Good thing no one was standing underneath it when it happened.
Then we ate lunch. Mac n cheese x's 2!
Then we saw Anne, our Recent Convert, she is doing well! She needed some service done, cleaning out her garage! So we told her we would help her on saturday to do that.
Then we went to the Crazy ladie's house and brother brown had brought by a trailer for us to fill it up.
Then we stopped at the guidos for dinner...
Friday 1-27-12
We went to the church and did our weekly planning
Then ate lunch Mac n cheese x's 3
Then went to crazy ladies house again to fill up the trailer, and its full. We also killed a possum, a huge possum, it was pretty cool.
Then we went to the Wolfs and ate dinner! The Wolfs are awesome, Brother Wolf is a non member and he goes actively to church. He's really cool. And their less active daughter is pretty awesome too!
Saturday 1-28-12
We went to Annes house and worked on her Garage, her mom died a while back and had it full of garbage... lots of clay because she made pots, so we threw out a TON of stuff and made it look really nice. We were there for a really long time though and we missed sports :( But they took us out to lunch. They told me when i get off my mission they are going to stalk me haha because they have my name and address. I hope so! They are so cool! I Told them to stop by someday. They told me too that they decided to get married, they arent engaged but he has asked her dad to marry her! I knew it!
Then we went to Crazy ladies again, we are really trying to get as much in this trailer as possible.
Then barry bailed on us for dinner, he went to disney land instead with his son... so we ate potstickers and cereal.
Sunday 1-29-12
WEnt to church... Ward Conference...
Dinner with the Bartholomew's and then we went to barry's because he is in town! It was gooooood!
