Ohio Trivia
The Other areas ad misionaries in the district are Sister Cope (Kennith cope's neice) and sister Skinner in Solon. and sister Packer and Sister Ruff in Hiram. Hiram ohio is where the John Johnson farm is. a few sections of the D&C were written there. the prophet Joseph spent a lot of time there. Sister Skinner's parents jsut moved to salem Ohio. which those of you rembember was in the last ward i served in-alliance. so her parents just moved into the mission. that would be so crazy. don't get any ideas mom and dad. also i learned something cool about Salem Ohio this week. The first angel Moroni that they made and put on the SLC temple was cast and made in Salem Ohio. there are still all sorts of steel yards and iron casting factories out there today. kinda neat.

Freezing Rain
This is the latest news from Jourdan. He helps us understand the wonderful weather in Ohio. Burr it sound fun!?!
i want to tell you some of the wonders of freezing rain, so you can know just how wonderful yesterday was.
so its cold. and its raining, so natrually that rain freezes, and for some reason it doesn't turn to snow. it turns into little bb like ice drops that sting when they hit you. when they hit you instead of like hail that bounces off, it splatters and freezes. your probibally thinking that after a few hundred drops hit in one spot you could get a pretty good layer of ice there. Well your right! and the rain hits everwhere. and it rained all day. so yesterday ohio was covered in a nice thick layer of ice. and so was I! haha it was nuts!! now i know it sounds great and all but, there are a few things that you need to be aware of when your world suddenly turns to ice.
1. you fall. . . . a lot
2. for those of you who have seen cool runnings when Sanka is in the ice cream truck and snaps of a peice of his hair.... that is real.
3. there such a thing as a chevy malibu-popcycle
4. its probibally safer to run with scisors than to drive.
so if you ever are caught unawares in a frozen rain storm, be prepared for those 4 things
