Presidential Saturday

Yesterday and today it rained here.  Rained!  A rare occurrence.  By this afternoon, it was beautiful and warm, with blue skies. 

We traveled with Elder and Sister Blue today to Fillmore, then to Simi Valley, taking items to elders in each place.  The elders in Fillmore needed a carpet shampooer and a language book.  An elder in Simi needed a blood pressure cuff.  His companion, Elder Snelson, whom I think I mentioned previously, had a terrible accident when he fell playing Frisbee golf and hit his jaw on a cement curbing.  He is having problems with his jaw and will be having surgery next week.  He called it "minor surgery," but it didn't sound fun.  They will put him under and clean out an area in his jaw.  Hopefully it will heal well and do the trick.  He just wants to be doing missionary work, and he is a good missionary.

  We then spent some time at the Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley -- very impressive.  I thoroughly enjoyed it!  I must admit, it made me long to again have a president of this caliber as our nation's leader.  Maybe in November?

I always thought President Reagan was a bigger man

Elder Mecham and Elder Blue have been moving a lot of furniture this week, enough that we didn't do a bike ride this evening.  Maybe Monday.
