First Time on Bikes

(A note from Elder Dooley's mom: Usually I do not include the little notes Heath sends his brother and sisters because they are personal or trivial. I included them this time.)

Bad news mom, I can't see the videos because they're on youtube. You'll have to try dropbox again, and hopefully it'll work.

Afton, it's great to hear that you're surfing more. keep it up, and you'll do even better. On e of the things that we've been working on hear is keeping the commandments. Our investigatorI just learning the commandments such as the word of wisdom, and is pretty much immediately changing her ways so that she can be baptized.

Kirkham, It's your senior year, so don't be stressing out to much, just make sure to work at what you have, and never give up. also, what is stronk? if used in context is it used like this:" I is Mahkrik, I is STRONK!!"?

Well, it is unfortunate that I can't watch the videos you sent, but i'll just tell you how my week went. This past week we had zone training, and the zone focus for this next transfer is love, as well as loving everyone, and all that we do. We took our car in earlier this week which is a Chevy Trax, and found out that it has some driveshaft problems, and it has had them for a while. We were told that it's probably a good thing we haven't really been driving around a lot, or the drive shaft could've literally exploded and come through the floor. We only drove to Halifax and back the day before taking it in, so it's no big deal. only a few hours of driving. So we ended up riding our bikes for the first day the car was in the shop, and then we got a rental, which is a Buick Verano. Turns out there were also a few recalls on the Trax, so we have no idea when we'll get the car back. Good thing it's all covered under Warranty. Have I ever said I don't really like GM vehicles? They are always have problems it seems.  We've gone over to our investigator's house a few times this week, and have been helping with painting different parts of the house. She feeds us and we give her service and teach her a lesson. It's a pretty good deal. Nothing else has really happened this week, other than lots of rain.
 hope you all have a good week. Love you!

Service

For Canada day, all we did was service all day, and that's how most of this week went. Service has been good though, I think it's one of the ways that my companion and I are going to get into better shape. Thanks for the recipes. We have a crock-pot that my companion has been experimenting with. He just kind of throws stuff in and lets it sit for a while, and it usually turns out pretty good. I did not get my package unfortunately, but I know i'll get it probably around transfers which is around 10 days away. I'm looking forward to it though. and the mission office is actually recommending that we get stuff sent to the apartment now, so here's our address:
102 Kaulbackst. Apt. 4 Truro, NS B2N 3M6. 
I think I already found out that I have a new cousin. I don't remember how I found out though. That's pretty exciting though. Another cousin to meet!
Thank you for the recipes, they will be put to good use, and i'll keep you updated on how they turn out. Not a lot has been happening again. The only thing that we got key indicator wise this week was several Recent Convert and Less active visits. I'll keep trying all that I can to do my best though! Thank you for the support!

Love you, Elder Dooley
