Hey Pops,

Im doing well. Today was an awesome Pday my companion and i had the opportunity to go to the beach. Sadly though we couldnt go in the water just touch it and sigh. Its beautiful down here. I wish that i could get pictures uploaded for you but i have a couple of problems. For one the batteries just dont last for more than a couple of Photos. I dont know if its the batteries or the camera. So i have to fork out the money for rechargables and a charger here soon. The other problem is that i dont have a cable for the camera. Wow a cassette! I remember those that seems like so long ago. It really is a blessing to have the internet and sattelites.

It looks like we will finally have a baptism this week! We found a guy that got a book of mormon from his friend about 4 years ago and had a testimony before we taught him anything. He watched general conference and is very excited to be baptized. Remember that promise that says the windows of heaven will be opened and there will be so many blessings that you cant receive them? Ya that sounds about right. :)

That sucks about the freezer but thats ok just stick the stuff outside :) Here it is the begining of spring actually. I have heard that the hottest month of the year is actually December. That will be a switch. Roasting to death instead of freezing. To be honest the hardest part of the heat isnt the heat itself. Its keeping hydrated.

I have not seen a scrap of jerky here at all actually. Ya that does sound like she is a little bit anxious :) Hows the Campaign? I havent heard a lot about it but it sounds like Romney is doing very well this time around. I had a chance to vote but when the time came to mail the stuff i couldnt find it. Oh well theres always another election. I keep hearing that people have written to me but i havent been getting that many letters. Oh well all in due time.
Love you Old man :)
