I think this is Paradise.. or Kamas

Well Fam,
I can safely say that this has been the most fun week and one of the most successful weeks I have had in a long time. I was with Elder Maughan who is just already a good buddy so we were able to skip that awkward getting to know you stage and we just went to work.

The  new area is nothing like what I came from. It is out in the country and we have the mountains all around. It is cool and not boiling hot all of the time. I can sleep all night because it isn`t an oven outside. Seriously I think it is paradise. It reminds me a lot of kamas. Not much going on, and everybody knows everyone.

I have taken lots of pictures this week only the only thing is is that there is no adapter to send them. So I am going to have to go buy an adapter to send pics next week. Sorry for the inconvenience. I took them all week thinking that I was going to be able to send them, but then I got here and realized that that was not going to work out as planned. But anyway I love this area. We have already seen so much success. They have had a ton of people to work with and we found even more this week that are just great people. It is amazing how easy the work is when you don`t have to worry about what the other is doing because you know he is going to do everything he can to help the work along. It is just like walking on the dirt road in Kamas all of the time. We have a couple of places that are a ways out there, so we have to do a little walking to get there, but nothing that I am not already used to. So that is fun. I am definitely a lot happier because I have a companion that wants to work it it makes everything a lot easier. 

We have been talking all week about how we can`t believe that we are actually together. We said we wanted to in the mtc but never really thinking that it would happen. Just a far off hope. And then when we got transfers we both flipped out because it is what we were hoping for. And now we are just showing President why he needed to put us together.

There was a kid getting set apart this week to leave for his mission and because we are part of the district President came to set him apart. And just so happened that we were teaching some people in back of the house of these members. So we saw President`s car and decided to go in and say hi. The first thing he says was what are you two doing together...haha I love that man, and we were able to talk to him a bit and tell him about the success, so he was super happy. This is going to be a great transfer and I don`t want it to go by too fast because I am enjoying it too much.

Just happy as can be and loving the work as always. Just a great branch that is really strong and everyone likes the missionaries. You can tell when you get somewhere if there were missionaries that worked before you or not. Because it shows in your relationship with the members. It is great. Just a fun place. I had to give a talk again as always to present myself and then give a short message. So ya I have given quite a few talks in the last few weeks. But that is what happens as a missionary...so you just gotta be ready when they ask. 

Well fam that is all for this week I am hoping to find an adapter for this camera this week so I can send pics because I have taken a lot of good ones. So hopefully by next week I will have that ready for you.  I love my area, I love my comp, I just love being a missionary and this will just be a great transfer that I am so excited for. Thank you all as always for the support and I hope you all have a great week this week. I love you all and we will be in touch next week.

I´m outtie,
Elder Wheeler
