San Diego #16 (10/20/08)

Hola Familia Mìo:
Okay....I'm not driving this transfer (sorta like a backup) So I'll get my eyes checked when I'm designated driver.
Tell dad to take lots of pictures, I want to hear how the hunt goes. Things are good, we're starting, well already started, tracting games. Every house that has a "yes on prop 8" sign we knock and play spanish house spot. -these are the signs: Christmas lights (all year around), a mop outside, lots of plants in pots outside, Mexican flags and virgin mary schrine. It's pretty gun. Last week we hit a gold mine! We knocked a street called Glenco and every single house was Spanish. Then we knocked on Parkbrookand good like 10 refferals for english and for the Tagalog elders!

Jenn's questions:
*HOW ARE YOU LIKING SAN DIEGO?* Yes, I like San Diego.
*HOW IS YOUR SPANISH COMING?* I'm learning Spanish.
*HOW DO YOU LIKE SERVING A MISSION?* I like being a missionary.
*WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE MISSIONARY EXPERIENCE?* Cat jumping up my dress.
*HOW IS ROBERT DOING?* Robert is good, He was really excited for the tie! He said "thanks, this is so much better than my other one, thanks, tell your family thanks." He was super excited. He got the Aaronic Priesthood yesterday. He really is a special little kid. He got Rita (his mom) our old investigator to church too!
*HOW IS THE WEATHER?* The weather is okay, hot in the day (super hot) and cold at night 55-60 degrees. (but your body adjusts to the constant heat so 70-60 is cold) Yep-I'm a aCalifornia Girl.

We're actually bi-lingual Hermana's right now. They are short on sisters this transfer, so they took the english sisters out of our area (Sis. Richards) and well, people are requesting sisters...so we're it. So right now, we have a couple of English investigators too.
Sill working hard...that's about it. Glad to hear Ben's doing well with the seminary stuff. Pres. Donaldson says right after voting we're going hardcore on the new "truth restored" stuff. We are the ultimate "preach my gospel" mission president has expanded on so many tactics and ideas in PMG. It's Great!
That's all I have to say for now

P.S. Jen-what happened to sending me quarters?

Wow! I'm glad I found this blog. Sorry I'm a bit of a snoop. I just got called to the San Diego Mission and will report to the MTC in January. These letters really help me know what to expect when I get out in the field. Thank you so much Hermana Baker.
