"eternigator"?

Hey everyone,
So this week was good, we picked up an investigator! Shes a referral from a member in the ward. We taught her the first lesson and she said she would read the book of morman and pray about it. And she actually let us in her house, shes the first person to let us in so far. And when we were tracting we ran into a guy up the street from out apt, hes not active in the church but he was baptized in. So he probably moved up here after he graduated and became not active. But he said we could come back, he would of let us in but he just put his baby to sleep. And my apt is blue, its dark blue and theres 2 buildings and a grass yard inbetween them with garden boxes people made in the yard. The work here is slow but its going. We do alot of service, this week we helped an eternigator (an investigator thatll be an investigator for eternity and probably wont end up being baptized) with their garage. We cleaned/organized it, then ripped up the pallets that were ontop of the gravel floor so they could park their car inside, then we put that in a big truck to go to the dump then we cut down some trees on the side of their garage so their moose hunting boat could fit and be out of the way. then we put the trees in the same truck to be taken to the dump. It was fun, theyre way funny. The husband Keith is a captain of a fishing charter. Everytime we help them they give us a bunch of fresh halibut or salmon from their big freezer. Our freezers stuffed full of fish from members. And once the mission president lets us we get to go on a charter with Keith and fish. Im excited for that, its gonna be way fun. We only get to go on a charter once a mission and only if were on the Kenai peninsula. But tractings fun here, you meet some really weird people though. And its the time of year that raspberries are growing so when we tract we find tons of wild raspberries and we pick a bunch. Theyre way good. But for my apt, were the only missionaries in Homer so we dont share our apt with other missionaries. The closest missionaries are a few hours away. I have enough blankets and my shoes are holding up great. We do get to listen to uplifting music in the car and we do. You can send me some if you want to. There are a couple stores that sell outdoor stuff, Ill probably be able to get some boots and if they sell warmer socks I can get those there too. My comp showed me an old type writer that still works that was left in the apt and its up for grabs. So I might end up bringing it back with me, its pretty sweet. I got the package with my powder stuff and the lifepak nano and garment bottoms, thanks. Thats cool Brolins trying out for the play, hope he does good, and he got his life, nice work. Whod Avery ask? is it that ellie girl? Thats crazy schools started, its gonna be way expensive for Braedon, books cost so much its ridiculous. And yea that lady said shes related somehow, something about the Fronk line, shes like dads cousin or something, its crazy. Thats awesome Landon got his call to South Carolina, when does he leave to the mtc? Tell him hi and congrats for me. And if you send a bottom for garments you should send a top too so I have an even amount, thanks. But yea everythings good here, Homers way cool, its to small/spread out though, theres only one stoplight. Its weird coming from having a church on almost every block to only having one in the whole town, and going from having houses so close to each other to having like 100 yards inbetween each house. Its weird. So yea Im doing good, I love you guys. Talk to you next week. Bye
Love Elder Roney
