We've hit the triple digits. I saw 111 yesterday. Because we're hanging around the Spanish missionaries alot (there on bikes) they call us for rides in this heat in our air conditioned car. 

Attack of the Bed Bugs!! Elder Forkner and I are getting bit by something. Elder Forkner has about 50 bites I don't have as many, maybe 12 but we've been sleeping at the Spanish Elders place for a few nights. The bug guy came yesterday and didn't find anything but sprayed anyway. We might have to move. 

As for the post mission plans, for the last 14 months I've told everyone that asks that I'm going to go to the Art Institute in Seattle. But in order for me to do that I need to take the ACT. So I was thinking (1) get a job, (2) prep for and take the ACT (3) get some credit. That is the extent of my post mission plans. 

One other thing, when I was doing my Eagle Project I was only obligated to do one set of horse shoe pits. Bro. Deehr told me that there needs to be 2 sets for it to be a proper game. Michael Barney was supposed to do the other set but he didn't. So I told Bro. Deehr that I would do the rest. Richy is a Life Scout he could do the other set and he could start today. 

We missed the Temple this transfer, but the Temple is very important. I plan to attend more often than every 6 weeks after next Spring. 

Other missionaries are getting impatient with me. Got to go.

We had our Zone Development Meeting for the transfer, yesterday, and because of memorial day we could not email.

Had my last interview with President Bassett, it was good. (sounds like President Basset is going home and a new President will be starting July 1) I never have felt good about being a snitch, and that's what I felt like when I was talking to President about Elder Forkner. Even though we are teaching effectively and setting baptismal dates we aren't doing our daily planning, we hang around with the Spanish Missionaries too much and I feel left out when we do that at lunch or at the end of the day. President told me to hang in there and keep pushing Elder Forkner. (We get along great. There's just a few rules that don't seem to be in his "white bible" that are in mine).

Well do what you need to do with financial things. I'm fine on this end I don't need any money right now. The Lord will bless us as we do our best. That means we need to hammer out the kinks and work on getting out of our ruts. The Lord can't bless us unless we fulfull a commandment.
