Email from August 7, 2013

Hello family,

So today Sorella Bringas will be with us again. So we will be in three. Can I just say it still cracks me up that you look at everyone else's blogs. 

We found a few people that were interested. And when we went to our appointments that we had set up a week ago we found that the investigators actually did show up. D committed to follow the word of wisdom. We found this lady yesterday and she had told her friend that she wanted to die. And then we met her and she said that we had made her feel better and then she asked us if we could meet with her again. We did not have to ask. I am glad we were in the right place at the right time. 

Yes my companion and I cleaned up a tank. It was like a pool on land. We had buckets of soapy water and went to work. I think in the end it took an hour and a half. It had a decent amount of water in it that we had to empty out with pots (yes like the ones you use in the kitchen). We had quite a bit of fun. 

I have a funny story that happened yesterday. We got our bikes fixed and were able to us them again. And we decided to go up to this little town. We thought it would only take 20 minutes in bike. Well I guess we were off by a long shot. We start off on our journey.  We make it past the first 15 minutes and we were not there. Then the road started turning into a mountain trail. After 10 minutes it started getting harder so we needed to stop. Five minutes after we decided to pull over we knocked on someones house to find the town. This random old lady let us into her house. And she was so sweet, we had a little lesson with her, but she was not interested and she told us where to go. So we went out for about 15 minutes and made it to the city, there is no one outside. So we find this wood shop that is open and ask these men if they know the address. Turns out that we went to the wrong city. There are two cities that are almost spelled identically and we had thought wrong. So we just went down the mountain. 

Anyway our week has been quite interesting. I love you all and hope everything will continue to go well. 

Love,
