hey everyone,

sorry it took so long to email. we have p day today instead of monday
because we went to the temple. It was way good, cant wait to go there
with all of you. I dont know why but the temple always makes me kinda
trunky for a second. i think because all of my memories of the temple
are home haha. but yeah. fun times. We finished the second car
yesterday. We had to take the top end off twice, becuase we did the
intake manifold gasket wrong and it was leaking but the second time
worked like a charm. if you need anything done to a 96 ford explorer
4.0 pushrod v6 i can take care of it. haha no but it sucked. fun for a
few minutes but im glad its over. All of our baptisms are still going
forward good and are investagators are progressing. the cool thing
about this area is no one tells you what you want to hear. they are
either sincere or jerks so its easy to find the elect that actually
need or want the gospel. we just have to work twice as hard to get
them..... pros and cons i guess. we had a way good fireside on sunday
in which our whole zone sang. it was way good though. elder whiting
gave a way good closing talk. he is a new 70. i am stealing some
things from him for my homecoming talk. thanks to grandpa mcdonald for
telling me to take notes for that my whole mission i think that i will
actually have it ready by the time i do get home. thanks grandpa haha.
but after that we had more food of course and just relaxed the rest of
the night. it was fun. Brother kava, my ward mission leader made the
refreshments. he ordered like 80 loaves of french bread, cut them in
half and stuffed ice cream in them. so warm bread and ice cream.
definitley a tongan thing but way good, and funny. alright well thats
about all. thanks everyone, love you lots,

elder allen
