October 11, 2010

Dear Fam,

Not much time this week, but it sufficeth to say, great week. My new area is right outside of Salta capital, at the very very end of the city. The roads are pure dirt. Translation, the soles of my shoes are completely worn out. I’m having them replaced tomorrow for a whopping 15 dollars, haha, gotta love cheap labor and such down here. Luckily another elder left another pair in the apartment which, while uncomfortable, will work until mine get fixed.

The area where I am is jam packed with people and it’s pretty poor, but the people are super nice and receptive. There weren’t many (...any) investigators progressing when I got here, so this week we busted our bottoms to find a ton of people. We did, but unfortunately none of them came to church, so this week we are going to keep teaching them and find tons more until we can find someone who will progress.

This p-day was awesome. It was a holiday (one of the very, very many) so we went with the ward to a little town that’s about 30 minutes away from the city that is super cool and has awesome mountains and a lake. Super awesome views. Salta is really pretty. There are mountains everywhere and I love it here. About as hot as San Diego. Anyway, because we went there, we don’t have much time to write. So, love you all tons, church is true, and I’ll let you how things are next week if things get a little more exciting.

Love,
-Elder Spencer



Dog bite. It got a little bit bigger and puffier than this later on. (buff leg, eh?)
