Marksville For Life!

So last week I told you y'all I was going back to Marksville and so here I am in a town that is only here because of a huge casino... ya the town starts a mile before the casino and it ends shortly after the casino, but wow I love the people here. It is way laid back, a ton of people don't have jobs they just live off the government and do much of nothing, others are retried from oil rig work and the others work at the Walmart or casino. So after I spent two day cleaning the apt I was ready to live there and get to work. So we went out on foot to go see members and kinda tract along the way. We went from dot to dot on our map trying to figure out where people were,  and that's always fun. We had a snack at the church and then worked our way back and we got home and I looked at my watch to see how far we went and it was like 9.88 and my comp looks up from the couch and said  "Wow that's probably the furthest I had ever walked in my life in one day"... poor kid. But it was a blast for sure! We had church and it was nice because there were high counselors and they were from my last area so it was nice to see them. but church was nice and the spirit is so strong in the little building. I've got no fun story's this week sorry but I love you all have a good week!

 Ok so I forgot one thing I did last week. 

So last p-day was the best. We got up and played golf with brother Vercher. It was a party and he's the best. After that we went to go email a tad. We then played some killer ping pong it was the best! But the best part was... MT biking. Yep I went biking. And it was the best. Now the mountains here are not to big but oh well. We did about 10 miles around this dope lake, we went with brother Magnum and brother Stock. We had a party and it was muddy (which is my fav). After that we went to the greens for dinner round one and today said bye to all the good people. We then went to say bye to sister Sanders and wow that was sad but it had to happen. But I can honestly say that that p-day was the best p-day yet!
