Dear Mom,

Sounds like your week has been packed. Definitely send me pictures of that stuff. The heat sucks really bad, I would much rather be freezing cold, I hate sweating. Yes I still have to ride a bike in this weather. I am trying to drink as much water as I can but I run out a lot of times cause we don't stop by the apartment unless we are on break. Living in this garage sucks, it is almost as hot inside as it is outside. We have a ceiling fan and two little ones that don't help all that much.

So my week flew by. I can't believe it is monday again already. We had a lot of scheduled lessons but about half of them fell through, that's missionary life for you! We got a sweet new investigator who lived a life a lot like the prodigal son, he has been in prison a couple times and he is starting to turn his life around. We taught him the restoration and at the end he said "now, you know I'm going to have to pray about this right?" We were like "please do!"

We have ridden our bikes a lot since we gave the car away on friday and we will be riding a lot until then as well. When I get home I am probably not going to ride a bike again unless I need to or if I want to do it for fun. I sure wish we had a full time car, it would make working a whole lot easier and we wouldn't sweat as much. So my week has been very busy but nothing really exciting to report.

Love,
Elder Robertson
Ever since my new companion came in here we have been going over to the church to play basketball and a bunch of other stuff. So we have been doing fun things for a few weeks now.
