A Unique Place

Well, Ryan let us know last week that he was going to be transferred. He said that his Mission President had told him that he would be going to a unique place. Unique in a good way, he said. Well, we got a letter from him on Saturday. He was pretty happy about being in "Steamboat Springs, Colorado". The reason: There are a lot of ranches around the area. His companion told him that a lot of times they do service projects helpingt the ranchers. He siad that he had baled hay for a rancher once. Well, I guess Ryan is missing the work more than he realized because he is anxious to get out there and bale some hay. He is also pretty tickled to be driving a car again. And to top it all off, there is already a baptism scheduled. He was missing one of his own, so it was kind of nice to walk in on one at his new place too.
I thought I would throw in here a little update for those interested in my pet lizard. His name is Ben Ralph. Cody told me that I should name him Ben and Stina said I should name him Ralph. I figured that he could use both names. It was really quite cute the other morning. Michelle and I had been lifting weights and when it came time to leave Ben Ralph walked us to the door and said goodbye and he scooted back in. I'm not sure if he was hoping to get rid of us or just saying goodbye. But since we will never know I will assume that I can read his thoughts and I definitely think he was just being chivalrous.
Oh, and a tv update (My, I am full of boring information.) I guess they can't seem to find the parts to fix my television, so I am going to be receiving a NEW ONE. Yeah. I am just hoping that they will give me the money for a new one or at least let me pick something other than an RCA, because I never want to own another RCA.
Well that is it for now.
