That
is so cool that Denny got baptized! He looks so old in that picture!
Dude what the heck man is that even legal for him to grow up!?! Some one
needs to beat him up for me, and give him the heebeegeebies or a good
grand slam!
We were out door knocking in Boyne
City and that is pretty far out. Walked up to a door and turned to look
off the porch and saw a deer 10 feet away from us. I have day dreamed
hundreds of times during long car rides of choking one out. I started to
creep forward and my companion knew what I was doing because I have
already told him about it and he scared the thing away =(. I have no
clue how that would have ended if I did grab hold of it. Probably good I
didn't because It probably would have trashed me, and shortly after we
continued to knock I found this 18 year old who had a long board and a
penny board out front and we related super well and he let us in and
got his Bro involved with the lesson and they were in awe at the first
vision and both wanted to be baptized... um yes please! It must have
been a deer from Satan to try to stop that.
I
went on trade offs to Alpena for the second time and while I was there
we were going to see one of their investigators who was preparing to be
baptized and I never met the man or anything. I was amazed when I saw
where he lived! It was the house of one of my former investigators who moved shortly after I left. Dude what is this
place!!? Is it consecrated ground for investigators or somethin!?!
I
had a really fun experience this week we were out door knocking in
Grayling and it was getting late We had done the outside circle of the
block and was doing the inner part of it now and was about to finish up.
I noticed that the car that pulled up to the house for sale was still
there and they were still trying to use the key box to get in the
house. My companion did my little P.C. trick (LOVED IT! worked so hard
to get him to learn that), they told us they were looking to buy this
house and the realtor had given them the code but it was on their phone
they left at home. I could tell they were honest since their car was now
trashed from them looking for the phone and they were like 48 year old
adults. So I offered to "look" at the lock. I got sick of the little key
box pretty quickly and offered I pick it, they guy blew out some air
then said "ok go ahead". Popped that baby open in like 30 seconds with
only my wallet set. They were shocked! =p But then they gratefully
proceeded, and offered to give me a tour of the house, it was a nice
house =p. I love exploring! That was so much fun and they were grateful
for it, all I had to do was make sure the door locked behind us as we
left. We then continued to door knock.
I looked
at my thought journal that I write in during the middle of the night of
the awesome Ideas that I get and saw the note "go rowing a bed
mattress"...=p I am not really sure what that means but that would be
pretty impressive to see some one do that. it also is a terrible Idea
though because it could end up sinking to the bottom of the body of
water and turning into a 1 ton brick...
One of
our cars break calipers broke and it was sounding like we were dragging
metal behind us on the pavement, we went to the shop to have it checked
out and had to wait for ever for it to be fixed. I loved it there! so
many tires and so many weird things that they were designed for. There
was a tv that played loads of videos of trucks and vehicles romping and
way hard core off roading, My respect for the Band Paramore grew so much
as that played in the back ground (the song that every one knows from
them). It was super healthy for me to hear because that song is actually
really well presented comparatively to all of the music that every
missionary likes to listen to of soloist singers who butcher the music
to sing what they want. They were in sync, rested when there was a rest,
it was crisp, great annunciation of notes, dynamics were great. It was
fresh, So fresh and so clean clean!
Back to
being serious, we had a pretty good week and had alot of service that we
did and actually today we were asked to come and help move heavy things
for the Relief Society President who is moving, So were going to do it
even though it's P-day.
I am finally caught up on my journal, I havn't been since I got here in Gaylord.
Last
P-day was sick! Some members took us out Golfing and we got to use golf
carts and everything to romp through the forest to the next course. It
made Golfing so much funner that It had been the previous times I had
done it. Using those techniques from that Golfing pro who came to mutual
I was able to slay that ball, the problem was I sucked a aiming or
getting under the ball with anything but the driver. I lost like 4 balls
to the trees.
Well I gotta hit the road
Bye I love you have a good day!
Don't get Shot!
