Hey y'all I hope all is well this is how my week went. Tuesday, July 15th. Today was probably one of my favorite P-days. We woke up early in the morning and went and hiked Upper Bridal Falls Trail on Casper Mountain, which is awesome and a very beautiful hike. It was challenging and steep, but the views were worth it. We did that day, and the zone got together. And had a zone barbecue and played spike ball. Hung out outside for a couple of hours. Tonight. We had one of the biggest storms. I think I've seen. The rain was pouring. We got inches in minutes and it was constantly thundering and lightning to a point where it was almost completely daylight outside. It was even worse because we were driving through it because we have exchanges tomorrow. Wednesday July 16th Today was a pretty good day. I had exchanges with Elder Dewey. We had a pretty good day. We found 18 new people and had some really interesting and awesome experiences. One guy said he was gonna call the cops ...

Monday, July 7th. Today was a pretty chill p-Day. Nothing insane happened. We played some sports at the church. But the Central Wyoming fair is in town and we went to an interesting alpaca show and we got to walk around some of the livestock and check that out. Tuesday, July 8th. Today was a 100° which was insane walking around in white collared shirts and slacks. By mid-afternoon, both me and elder Burt were hot, sweaty and mildly irritated Which didn't help when we knocked on the door and a guy wanted to debate the definition of soliciting his no soliciting sign wasn't on his door or around his door it was on his garage on the other side of the house which we didn't see it was kind of funny cause but luckily by the evening at cool down and it was a good rest of the day. Wednesday, July 9th. Today was a pretty good day. We had a zone meeting. Which is where we gather together as a Casper Zone and talk about are upcoming plans for the month and set our baptism goal and...

Tuesday June 24th. Today was a pretty good P Day, we had the opportunity to go to the temple. So that's what my morning consisted of mostly, which as a missionary going to the temple is an amazing experience that allows you to take refuge from the everyday hubbub and receive a Fuller measure of The Lord's power. After the Temple, we went to the national trail history museum in Casper, with some other missionaries which was fun. We got to ride in a wagon across the North Platte river and pull a fully loaded hand cart and watch some interesting documentaries and learn some more about the Trip west taken by many settlers, including pioneers of the church. Overall, it was one of the better P days. Wednesday, June 25th. Today was pretty good. We Had our last zoom devotional with president and sister sandstorm. Our new mission president arrives Thursday evening and takes over the mission. We had district council today and I gave a training on the spirit and and how spirit is import...

Hey, yall I hope everything's going well for you. Things have been going well here in Casper. Here is a quick rundown of what has been going on. Monday, June 16th Today was an awesome Payday. We started our day off playing football with all the elders in the zone. We spent most of our day at the college national rodeo finals which was super awesome and super fun. I love spending time at the rodeo and watching the different events. We saw steer wrestling, goat tying, and bull riding. Then Elder Sterner and I went to a Chinese buffet because we had been fasting for 2 days to see how much we could eat. Then we got back to work progressively throughout the night we watched a storm cloud move in until about 8 o'clock. It just dumped rain. The roads became rivers and it was fun. Running from contact to contact from knocking on people's doors none of them answered so we got drenched but it was a great day! Tuesday, June 17th Today I hit 3 months as a missionary. Which to me is...
