Week 6

Ohhokay...  the week acutally started off not crazy in the sense of crazy, but rather just different.  I went on exchanges with our Zone leader,  i went to their area.  It was actually a Whole lot nicer then our area, it was like an actually city and stuff! and the appartment was WAY nicer too... and it had like tennis courts in the back yard that we did both mornings i was there.  i won both times... Awwhh yeah! 
 
They picked me up like at 1 on our P-day... so i got jipped there.  
And people over here i noticed like to just do lesson's out on their porches, wierd. 
So we got eaten alive at one lady's house, and the mosquitos are Freaky over here! they are like black with white stripes.  I was sure i was going to get West nile from them.
 
Anyhow, the first have of the week Flew by, 3/4 of it was spent driving or in meetings.  We had our district meeting (which again is like almost 2 hours away) and then the next day we had the trainer and trainee meeting  up in Nashville (about 2 and a half hours north) that lasted All day... no joke, we got back at like 8.  So friday was my only normal day.
 
But here's where the crazy comes, on saturday... It started off innocently enough.
We had a baptism for a family of 3 ( which technically counts as our baptism... SO EAT IT CAMERON!) and Pres. McKee came down for it and it was just an Awesome baptismal service!  Jock was there and President talked to him about getting baptized, it was sweet.  So he's moving along now.  But later that night our dinner appointment skipped out on us so we just went out and headed towards a less active that lives about 30 minutes (walking) away, and we ran into everyone that lives here it seems... the first guy was cool and we gave him a BoM and prayed with him, The second guy seemed alright to begin with, and Elder freeze kinda knew he was crazy from before and wanted me to experiance some crazy southerners.  He got to talking about how he believed that little people used to live on the earth millions of years ago.  At first i thought he was talking about midgets or something, but no! he was talking about people that were like 2 inches tall!! WHAT?! and he said he had a fossil of one, so he invited us in.  First thing i noticed was that his house was super clean... like theres Clean, then there's OCD Clean, then there is Psycopathic murderer clean, which is what this was.....  But alas i'm out of time, so next week i'll finish
