So Little Time...

Hello Family and Friends.

Well today's P-day was awesome. We didn't get back until a little while ago. We hiked up to Mount Whitney a little bit. We went to Lone Pine Lake which is right on the Mount Whitney Trail. It was about an hour hike, but we were booking it. Ended up being one of the best hikes of my mission. It was a Glacier lake, and super reflective. the whole thing was glass. 

On the way back to Ridgecrest we stopped at Subway, I got a Meatball Marinara with Peperoni, I inhaled it in about 2 seconds. This week was really great. The M. Kids have Baptismal Dates for the 27 of October. Their Dad should be ready to baptize them by that date. Only thing is, I may not be here to see it. We picked up a new member investigator. His name is My..., He's pretty legit and really sincere. He's one that we may be able to set a date with this week or next. Many of our investigators were really busy the past 2 weeks or so. We are starting up meetings with the other M. again, and trying to get A. ready too. Unfortunately we lost a baptismal date this week. We had one with M. for the 1st of September, however he totally lost interest for some reason, and he texted us that he was finished. Don't know really what happened there, but we will see. 
My back is still iffy. I'm taking really good care of it all the way up until I go home. It's pretty frustrating because I haven't been able to work out  like I normally do, but maybe that's the problem. Maybe my working out was part of the reason I injured my back in the first place. I'll be doing lots of reading when I get back about how to avoid crummy training, and how to have an ultimate back that wont go out. Again as far as school goes...I don't know where I want to even go with. My only goal is to get the minute bit of credit out of the way for the associates thing. Then from there I may be able to go to better places for what I am interested in. 

I'm so glad you got the pictures Mom! Did you get the magnetic Name Tag I Sent with it too?





































 

Time seems to be slowing down in some places and speeding up in others. We are already on week 4 of the transfer. After this only 2 more, and then only 2 more transfers. It's kinda sad how fast things go. I'll at least be glad to get out of the Ridgecrest heat this next transfer. I'll miss this place though. Lots of awesome Memories, and experiences. 

Anyway!

Catch ya'll later!
