To Dad: AHH Big Bear is AMAZING! It’s like going to heaven! I get to possibly see snow up here! The ward is nice up here the building is beautiful! still getting to know our investigators so not too sure about them but for now we are going to work with less actives and then see if we can find investigators through them because tracting isn’t too useful here because lots of the cabins are vacation homes or rent out homes so people don’t live in many of them. I’ve heard a bit about the Olympics especially about Bolt! I heard he did fantastic again! I heard it’s neck and neck with China right now. I’m a little bummed I’m going to miss them but I’m looking forward to winter Olympics in a couple years! Well I hope you have a great week! I’ll be sending a letter home soon with my talk and another letter! Love you tons!
Family letter: So yes big bear is AMAZING!! It is just beautiful and everyday I wake up and it’s like being in a whole different world than when I was in Barstow! It hit like 84 as the highest it’s been the other day. It felt amazing to me! There are big trees everywhere a BIG lake that is beautiful! We live in like a little cabin which is super cool! The ward is really neat up here and they love my companion and seem to like me at least a little. They appreciate the work we do. We have a lot of strong members here. Not a lot of solid investigators yet but we are working on it. We got a new investigator the second day I was there. He isn’t too solid but we are going to at least try. Earlier last week we spent a good bit of time at the bishop’s getting the info on less actives and active members. Our Bishop is soooo good at what he does. He was in the temple presidency for a while and takes his callings seriously which is great! So we have a whole bunch of less actives he told us to visit that we will be going to see this week. Anyways, just been getting to know the area. Lots of people on the weekends not a lot during the weekdays but I got sooo lucky to be there! That would be really awesome if I could be there for the winter and see snow! It’s also cool because all the youth in the ward (which isn’t a lot) snowboard so instantly have a connection there. It is really really awesome!
Now my companion is another super awesome companion! He’s from West Jordan Utah and he was MTC companions with Elder N so I’m follow up training him. He was actually trained by Elder R who was my MTC comp! Pretty crazy! I’m sooo excited for this new area and new zone! I’m now part of the A V Zone and it has a TON of my friends in it! So zone activities are going to be super super awesome! And the best is that this is the hottest month of summer in Cali and I get to be in the mountains! Also it supposedly rains a lot in the mountains in August! I was definitely blessed! Well I love you tons!!
