I didn't know you guys were heading to Vegas!
Sounds like you had a good time. Patrick, our recent convert, was in Vegas last week participating in a ballroom dance competition.
You mentioned horrid heat; it's the same here
but with very high humidity. My shirts have permanent sweat stains on
them. It's really hot here, but I haven't sweated so much that my tie knot
gets soaked through, like Dad described. That's crazy. I've been drinking enormous amounts
of water.
The only two things I don't like about bike areas are:
1: I become disgustingly sweaty and disheveled looking, and
2: I am constantly hungry.
It's purely the heat that causes both of these things; neither happened to
me during the winter. I still prefer biking in the heat to freezing rain
though.
Yes I did get the package; thank you! I appreciate it.
I'm sad that Grandad can't have blackberry pie
anymore! [This was in response to some dietary changes BD's grandad has had to follow. Anything pie-related is big news in our family!] :( (Guess that just means more for me! Ha ha--just kidding.)
He could still eat rhubarb pie though, or cherry, or apple or pineapple
or whatever. So that's not so bad.
Not much to write about this week; just went out and proselyted every day. My companion and I are still getting along well!
Love you mom! Thanks for writing me!
Talk to you next week,
Elder Duffin
PS Tell the Daughertys I have been getting their letters and that I tell them thanks! :)
