Week 31

Hello family! This week has been very eventful and good. We have had a lot of good stuff in our area and have a few people on date for baptism!!!
A member was given these grapefruit and they are ginormous!!!
I have mentioned before that one of the biggest things that struck me about California was the fact that succulent plants are not used as houseplants but... They are literally BUSHES! This one is probably about 10 feet tall.
If you look close enough there are indeed people parachuting.
I got to have a lesson with one of our members in a small orchard in her back yard! It was really calm and peaceful and a LOT cooler than in the sun. It is made up of only about 5 trees in a row and then the neighbors fence.
Dad would know what this machine is. He is a member in our ward and we are teaching his wife. He is the one that splices fiberoptic cables together and this is the machine that does it! I told him about what we do in northern Utah.
(This is for Devin) we need to make a gumball machine gun! Not too hard though because gumballs are hard.
We found this on the side of the road! This is going to be my new chair once we wash it off.
There's one fire (that one was only burning for a few hours.)
Then there is this one a few days later. (This one is out too but this happened on the day we went on exchanges so I was up in the northern apartments where the fire was right next to. By the end of the day it too was put out.

On exchanges with Élder Taggart. (He was one of the Spanish Élders in my first zone) this is his last transfer so only 22 more days in the mission along with my companion Elder Hoag.
This is me at a Spanish members house for dinner. (Elder Roundy is the only other Elder that came with me to the mission field.  He is the one in the background.)
The scenic section…






Elders are always shocked to see that I am capable of exceeding 4000 pictures in just under 7 months.
