Well hello there family!!
So guess what, I am STAYING IN HERMISTON!! Yeah im super excited. Not only that, Elder Stringham is staying here with me!! :) this is our third transfer together! I dont wanna say we are special or anything, but that almost NEVER happens in this mission!! So we are expecting some pretty big miracles in the next month and a half. We received our transfer calls on saturday night and we went nuts- I think we woke up the members that we live with, but it was worth it!
This week has been full of interesting stories! We saw a semi truck driving in the middle of town... On Fire!! Yeah it smelled like burnt rubber because the tires were melting... And it was still driving cause the driver didnt know! Also i would like to share a story that pretty much sums up Tracting a Hispanic area in the United states. _*Door opens. Me: "Hola!" Her: "Hi." Me: (Because i thought she spoke english) "How are you today?" Her: "Bien." *Door slams._ Haha elder stringham and i have been laughing about it for a few days now.. Maybe you had to be there.. :)
We also found out there is like 4 panaderias here in hermiston! (Spanish Bakery) So we have been tactfully visiting them all, being careful not to eat too much because the "swelling" of my cheeks finally went down since we started eating healthier and going for a run during our exercise time in the morning. In the 30 degree weather. Its great. Also, remember when elder Young and i exterminated our pet mouse named Juan? His brother Paco came to avenge his death, and he is the smartest little guy i have ever met!! We havent even seen him! All we know, is that he likes sunchips and ritz crackers. Have you seen the movie Mouse Hunt? Yeah we are about to live that movie in Hermiston Oregon.
Well, love you all!!
Elder Doman
