Hello Everyone,
Wow i made it through my 1st transfer. Still in the same place not much of a change.
Alot of our appointments keep on canceling on us. I found out that the southern part of my area is crazy. They don't want or wont talk with us.
Some of my nice slacks ripped on my bike chain. It was my favorite pants. Oh well.
A funny story Sister Vargus invited her next door neighbor over for dinner with us she is a recent covert (rc). She was so stressed out because she thought she was doing something wrong (they said no). W e told her its kinda what happens to us. Now she is getting her gardner to listen. She said she will have some one for us to teach once a month, she is a very funny Mexican lady.
I recently learned that resisting the scriptures will lead to my destruction . read it !!! lol
Cool scrip 2Nephi 31 and 32 it's about having one bible.
Well that my scrip for the day

Hey I'm fine!!! The fact is I didnt know about the earthquake at all until someone told me about it So I guess you guys hearing that I had been moved for the day was not true. We went about our usual day. That is sad to hear about the people of Japan. So glad to hear all the missionaries are safe.
W e went to the temple today. I rented my temple clothes and a funny thing a 32in waist is a little tight on me i found out. I guess the members have been feeding us better than I thought. Ha ha. But the temple was realy cool I highly recomend this one in San Deigo. It is so beautiful not like Salt Lake of course but still really pretty.
So dad is getting shoulder surgery. Ok how did Dad hurt himself? There has got to be a funny story to with this.. There always is one when Dad gets hurt.
I heard something really cool that on mother day and christmas we can do skype, but i'll let u know if we can.
We were not abel to meet with any investigators for a couple days. And we haven't had the car for longer than normal ,so my legs are dead from all the riding. Tell Dad he can wait and send me the exercises later I am getting enough exercise right now with my bike . I need to remember to be thankful my bike is working especially now that we have had the car less.. It would really be hard if I was having to walk everywhere.
Just to let you know I am still just laughing stuff of and having fun. Sounds like everyone is doing great.

FUN STUFF
3/8/11
Fun Stuff
Well I got good news my bike is fixed. Yeah. The bike shop fixed it. I never heard from Bob about it. I couldn't wait any longer.
We set a new baptismal date with a kid name Nekko We are not sure if his dad is ok with it. So maybe you could say a little prayer for him and his family.
We go to the temple in San Deigo at 10 am they say it is beautiful inside. I can't wait to see it.
Maranda just vanished on us. She is not staying at her appt in our complex any more.
We are going on a tracting fast. Not tracting for 10 days. We found Nekko through a member.
I just got your card with the In and Out card. Thanks so much. I do not get packages until zone confrences which is every 6 weeks. Unless it United States Postal Service and then only if the Zoney feels like it.
It sounds like everybody is doing great !

LAST OF THE MONTH
3/1/11
Last of the Month
Well the last month went by very quick. Months are like weeks and days are like hours.
Bob the bike guy hasn't got back with me yet. I've been walking everywhere. The gear changing thing broke. The good thing is we get the car Wed thur Fri.
W e traded the Book of Mormon for a Simeon Bible. We told the guy we dont read Simeon but he wouldnt take the Book of Mormon unless we took his. Maybe he will look at it.
We get food every night from members. They are very good to us. To answer your question. We have a Walmart and In and Out close by. I havent got any of that yet. No packages or letters only emails
My Comp. is from San Antonio Texas but no Texas accent.
Planing to get my bike fixed tommorrow at a bike shop. Still no Bob. It rained a little while the Lindholms were here. I hope that it didnt make them have a bad time.
All is going good

MISSIONARY LIFE
Feb 22, 2011
Well the golden one cancled on us 5 time in a row, Maranda. She was really ready a little disappointed.
My bike chain broke yeah 2nd week. And my watch is not working right but dont worry about me, I'm just laughing it off.
I went on exchange with Elder Jekins which was fun we taught a lady named Frann. S he i great just need to quit smoking and coffee.
We did alot of tracking all week havent found any one yet. But we are not discouraged the Lord has us here for a reason.
The Mission Presiden keeps telling us about packages he said to send packages it has to be United States Postal Service because he cant forward it if its anything else.
We also got rained on but we had the car that day. We felt really blessed that day.
Alot of NI, FNI [not interested or friendly not interested] or of course there are those that are NFNI not friendly not interested. But I'm good.

FIRST WEEK IN CALI
First Week in California
Hey everyone ,
I'm having a good time here my comp is Elder Manzara I dont know if i spelled that right. About my apartment it is ok except the toliet. I dont think its ever gotten cleaned. Yeah I know if I care and noticed its bad,
Its been about in the 70s all week. Which is very nice and way better than Utah.
We get the car about 1/2 the time. Which is nice. It's nice to have a break from the bike. The hills suck but I'm getting used to the bike and riding it.
Ok cool story we were tracting around the appt complex because we were white washed. Which means that there are not any other missionaries close by and its only us over here. So we are both new 2 the area. We found Marnda Buck (no relations to Jason) and when we got to teach her, We found out she is golden. She went to the Barnes and Noble and bought a BOM after our first discussion, and has already started reading it. We didnt have to tell her to, and she came to church
We also got run out of the appt complex by someone calling us a cult. Yeah but out on the street we found Eric. Who needed help. Heavenly Father works in mysterious ways. We had to get thown out to find him We were able to teach him a little, but he didnt come to church this week oh well. So thats my story for you all.
The Mission President said something about not being able to change the package address. He said 1st class or priority US mail only.
Sounds like you are all having fun. Oh yeah I forgot to tell you. I'm in OceanSide
