Hey
everyone,
The day has come. We are
finally not sick…neither of us are ill to the point of confinement. For those
of you that are keeping score at home that totaled 3 weeks that we could not
work. In other words, half of this transfer was spent in the apartment. So, now
we will endeavor to tell everyone that we are not dead yet and that we are
still planning on visiting them on a regular basis. Many people were worried
that we were not going to teach them anymore. Surprisingly, none of them
thought to call us and ask; interesting.
Wednesday was spent in
Snowflake. We had a zone conference that morning and then we went to the
temple. After we left the temple we were going to go to dinner at Trappers,
which is a pretty good restaurant. On the way, we saw that some of the Sisters
had pulled onto a lot in town and had the hood up. So we (Elder Russell, Elder
Stott, Elder Freckleton, and I) pulled in to check on them. The coolant was
empty...and it had been filled up just a few hours previous. Well Elder Russell
and I took off to find more coolant. This proved to be a difficult task because
it was around 7 o' clock in the evening, meaning that everything was already
closed for the night. Snowflake is a sleepy town I guess. We finally found the
right kind at a gas station and returned with the coolant. A mechanic had
arrived in the meantime and informed us the water pump was cracked and would
drain the tank again. The sisters called the vehicle coordinator and he counseled
them to leave the car there and travel home with the other sisters. So that's
what they did and then we all went to dinner. I felt really bad for Elder
Russell because that coolant was expensive. Then, someone paid for our dinner
at Trappers. We don't know who, but I've gotten used to accepting the kindness
of others when they want to be anonymous.
We are no longer allowed
to help people with moving. The reason, you ask? Bed bugs. We have 3 or so
companionships that are now unable to work for awhile because they have a bed
bug infestation in their apartment. Bummer.
Transfers are coming up
next week. I will probably be moving this time, so we'll see where I end up.
Hope you all had a good
Father's Day. I know I ended up getting a lot of candy at church.
Love you all!
Elder Kirk
