Subject: I am doing a great work and cannot come down.
Wow, everyone who enjoyed conference, raise your hand. I thought it was pretty good, except for the priesthood session. That one just made me jealous because I saw all my friends in the choir. But then I realized that they are probably all jealous that I am on a mission. I think I only saw four of my friends, but a lot of those people looked very familiar. I know I saw Alex North and Josh Brown. Then I saw the top of Mac Cloward's head, just the forehead and up. Later I was able to see him more fully. And I'm pretty sure I saw Allen Anderson, although I could be wrong, I've only seen him once in the past two and a half years.
We got one of our less actives to watch conference with us by telling him that we needed a ride to the stake center in Rocklin. He came in shorts and flip-flops to the priesthood session, but I think he still enjoyed it because he came again on sunday.
Three of our investigators were able to watch at least part of conference including our most recent investigator who we just picked up this last week. That was a great night for me; not only did we get to start teaching one of our member's nephews, but I also had the privilege of watching as Elder Boody flew head first over his handle bars and into a row of bushes. Luckily, nothing was hurt but his pride, especially when we later found out that one of our potential investigators was watching the whole thing. We both laughed all the way to the next appointment.
We are doing well and enjoying ourselves here in California. I hope everything is the same for you. Choose the Right and remember I love you.
