Pictures!!!

So this week was a really good week as far as missionary work goes. We went up to fairport harbor which is actually where a lot of saints came to when trying to get to Kirtland, anyway we found quite a few people who had a little interest so that is exciting. We got moved into the Morely Farm on tuesday. It is really cool to live there, but it is kind of small and the floor isn't level, but it is just a cool old house. So i did get the coat but it actually warmed up a little and the sun was shinning for a few days, but they say the cold is coming soon.  I am getting my laundry done, and that is one great thing about the farm is that we don't have to pay anymore to wash our clothes. I got your letter and the money from the burtis and the coat. I sent a letter to grandma julie back at the mtc, but i need to figure out where I drop my letters of to send home and then maybe i can get a few more sent. I got the Johnsons package and email and they had some good questions so I will try and answer them. So we have rode our bikes over 100 miles so far, but we can drive the car around quite a bit more since we moved. So really almost everywhere I have been in Ohio is just one house after another with a lot of trees and not to much open space. It has some slight up and down hills but nothing to big. So a couple things i didn't quite realize before i went out is how important and nice it is when you have good members in the ward who give you refferals ( which we havent gotten any) and that drive you around and feed you, PB and J gets old pretty quick haha. So for our contacting so far we have mainly just go around and stop by members (except now we know almost all of them in our area), former and potential investigators. We have tracted a little bit but my companion hates to tract so I mention it to him and he always tries to think of something else to do. There aren't many anti-mormons, just a lot of devout Catholics. I haven't got anyone elses letters for a week or so if they sent any. It sounds like things are going good there. How is the weather? We got a new bishop on sunday, and the Johnson guy, Dan, got called as second counselor i think he is from st. george. My companion is a pretty good worker and rule keeper. He said his last companion wasn't so he is getting back in the hang of things though. Elder Demke follows the rules and helps Elder Ellsworth keep them. I'm not sure if they have anything or not. My companion has another brother on a mission that is my age, and one in high school, along with a 7 and 3 year old brothers. So hopefully i can get some more letters written and keep everyone happy haha. We also get to go to the church and shoot hoops in the morning so that will be fun. I'm sure I forgot to mention something but i hope you have a great week.
Love Elder Koden Hunt
