I´m not sure what else to write.. changes are in 2 weeks and i hope i go!

Questions!
Who is he? Elder Griffin Schone
Where is he from? He is from Dixie
How long have you been together? 2 weeks
How is his attitude? he has a good attitude but if he gets sidetracted its over.. I have struggled to keep him going because we've got of track too much.
Do you get along? yes we get along great
How do you feel about training? im sick of training and cant wait to come home :D
Any troubles with language? I still cant speak spanish.. But I´m still here
Favorite foods? Pizza, cafe Rio, anything now (its a hard world here)
Quirks? I dont know what a quirk is..
How is the work going? It sucks. we still have nobody to visit
Have you started getting familiar with the area? yes but i dont know many people
Are the members there helpful? NO!!
What's the weather like right now? warm.

Volentary information. I saw two guys fighting on the bus. One was Drop dead drunk and the other looked like he was 18. I just bought a knife and was thinking about protecting myself but i didn´t feel the need.. They just threw some words back and forth, as well as some fists and some wrestling but this drunk guy was serious. He chased the kid out of the bus and we were on our way.

This knife is sick its a double sided switch blade. Like Darth Maul´s lightsaber.. and cost me 5 bucks!

Guatemala has received the new LDS version of the Biblia. Members camped out to receive a copy. They were sold out in 2.5 hours. Taylor received one, but gave it to Elder Martenez before he went home.

well i want to say this week went well but that would be a lie.. I would also be lieing if i said it was bad..For all of you who have served missions yes, We dont have investigators and i also got a new companion.

. It seems like i am always starting over. THis is the 3rd companion i have had to teach in 2 months.

Today we had interviews, We were supposed to be there at 11, president didnt show up till like 1:30, Im pretty tired.

Elder Ireland gave me a suit this week .. Its a gray pinstripe suit. It fits me well.. He gave it to me because he bought his 3rd suit in a paca for 2 dollars (self owned cheep clothing store). I Like it.!
Anyway.. No investigators.. And im really bored of my area and dont want to be in it :D

anyway thanks for the letters.. No lasers yet..

Love ya all Laq´ Che´

Elder Schone from Good Ol' Dixie!

well i got the package in the hospital.. And mom I always remember to floss!!! ITs so easy with these flossers.

So here is the update on my companion.. He is home enjoying company of his family and friends.. He was sent home today (Tuesday at 7 28) so he is home now.. He always wanted to go home but this gives him the excuse to do it. I think he will be happier.. there are a few pictures on flickr!.. Anyway My new companion is Elder Schone. From St. George. His addres ----- (sorry, open blog) His mom is from Toquerville her maiden name is Beat..... Maybe they know grandpa and grandma. HE also knows Lyle´s family. I think he knows tommi, possible Jordan

We just got out of La Leyenda which was my last area.
So other than that not much is happening. I havent done anythign in like 8 days and i go pretty tired just walking to the store!
Anyway thanks for all the letters.. I guess missionary mall had a letter posted from elder Ireland all about what happened to my companion.. And i guess elder Schones mom came across my blog from the missionary mall website.. And so maybe my blog got hit up by all the missionary´s moms!!!

Thanks guys.. Elder Wood.. If u have questions let me know.

Mom.. I dont know what tyfoid fever does either so i dont knw if it has long term effects
