That time it was super easy to jump off that boat

Alright everyone, this week was a doozy, Tuesday district meeting was a fun one, then exchanges with some Spanish elders, I was with Elder Weekes and we basically did service and travel time. Kind of a bummer but that's OK, service is a wonderful way to show people we care for them! Then Wednesday we got thrown off by service as well, so here in Washington almost no one has air conditioning, so naturally any time it gets above like 75, everyone rushes to buy portable AC units. So there were a bunch of stores sold out and we were trying to help this one lady get her AC and it was just a whole big mess because she was being very particular about which AC unit she wanted and yada yada yada. But we got that done, it was pretty neat. Thursday doctors appointment, alls well. Then ASL class in Burien! I love Burien, it is such a fun place but anyways, class went well, we practiced fingerspelling because most people are not good at that yet. It was great!
Friday was all day service and that's where our email title comes into play, we were riding back after a nightmare of getting on the ferry we got there in time for one and then they kicked us out because we cut in line (we were following the GPS but we should have known better) then we had to wait until 2 ferrys after the one that we almost made it to. So we were super late and while we were on the ferry, all four of us and a member. Elder Madsen turned to Elder Allmendinger and I and said "it would be so easy to jump off this boat right now" we were just like "huh... That's true.." it was very strange. But actually it might have been Elder Allmendinger to Elder Madsen and I but I can never remember, it's been a whole 3 days since that happened. Saturday I was on exchanges and Elder Meyer and I were in an English area and we talked to everyone, all over the place, it was so fantastic, riding bikes was fun. Then church was good, Letitia came, it was a great time! But anyway, this was a strange week but it was really great I saw the Lord guiding us to where we needed to be. He really does trust and guide His missionaries to do the things they need to do, I love being a missionary.
