wow

This week was super weird. Did alot of stuff. But of course the momentyou sit down at the computer you forget everything. So here goes trying to remember stuff.

So Wednesday we did an activity in the plaza here in Loncoche it was pretty awesome. We put a poster that said What are your goals for 2016? And had a ton of people write down goals and stuff. We gave out juice to everybody as well it worked really well. Talked to more than 150 people in like 3 hours and pulled a few really good futures out of it. Also ended up talking to some kids who are on the local rugby team here in Loncoche and Elder Yson offered to help them. So that was really cool. But behind every story there has to be a chaotic story right? So setting up for this thing was crazy we used the white board from the church and a table also from the church because it is like 2 blocks away. So Elder Yson and I being the bigger guys go over while England and Quezada wait with the stuff. So We start walking along rolling the white board but it is really slow and REALLY noisy. So we think Well if we lifted this up it would be faster. So i win being bigger so i pick up the white board throw it on my back and walk the next 2 blocks to the plaza. Uphill. I couldnt see anything but it was pretty funny looking i was told. I believe them. So we do all the activity and….i throw the white board on my back, put a jug of water in one hand and walk back to the church. It was a long day. But a good time. And worth it.

So the next day we did a service stacking 12 meters of firewood in this guys backyard so it could dry during summer. But the guy is old

and so stubborn we start going but one of the towers is starting to fall. So i suggest that we stop and rebuild it so it doesnt fall. He says no its fine its always like that. I dont know so we keep going. We get almost done with that stack and.....the end tower basically falls over. So Yson catches it before it goes and we start moving the wood so it will not all fall and get to the point where it isn't moving, but you can see that it is going to fall again. So i then argue with him for 5 minutes to let him take the rest of it down to be able to make it more stable. At last he let us do it and we started going. At last. So that took a good 2 hours for a service project that should have been an hour. Old people. They are annoying. Don’t get me wrong Dad i love you but still. Friday i went with Yson to teach Rugby to these kids. Well i taught how to push and not get tackled. Turns out that after 10 years of playing football as a lineman i do know how to push people. I completely destroyed these chileans. but then we started running and the tide turned slightly. I held my own but they didnt lose as badly. Stupid 2 hand touch.

Saturday we had another service moving a ton of dirt from the front of this house to  back. I was on shovel duty the entire time. About 3 hours of shoveling dirt into wheelbarrows. I could do it but i am not as good as i used to be. But my stubborness lets me keep going and not take breaks. So thats still good. But that was kind of the week. Im sure I'm forgetting something but yeah. Im doing good still working hard. I love yall
