Hey. I am still in Polson. Transfers are next week so we think that one of us will be going here even though that it could easily go either way. In Elder Tanner's last area he stayed there for 4.5 months with his trainee. So.... we could end up staying together until end of July. Elder Ashton has now been in Big fork since January. we will see.

Everything sounds different at home. South Dakota??? Where and what in the world was that trip ever planned for and why? That's just weird.

Lots is happening here and yes you can write the Atchleys. address is: 7 Weber st or ln. Polson, Mt 59860 (I don't know which). They are getting baptized the 20th of this month. I am baptizing Emy and Tanner is baptizing Earl. It's going to be awesome. We started to get a little baptism service organized for them and the stake patriarch's wife gave her a ward list. We have just been hearing that she has been calling everyone. Its pretty funny. and most importantly, one of the members in our ward was Cpt. Von Trapp in the Sound of Music with one of the local community theaters here and they both went to see that. So.... Emy wants him to sing a special musical number for their service. its going to be good. Can't wait.

AT church this last Sunday. a couple showed up out of no where. They retired from
Florida and have come here because they knew how beautiful it was. They stopped in in Idaho on the way and talked with their LDS uncle who talked to them about the church forever. So... they wanted to be sealed for time and all eternity and no other church has that. We just gave them the 1st lesson in their 5th wheel 2 days ago. We will see. They told us they have already been "baptized" so we will see how it all unfolds.

We are anxiously awaiting a new mission president as we just had our last zone conference with our dearly Beloved President and his wife. They will be missed. They told me that after my mission I need to go to their house. Our zone conference was pretty awesome. we had this stupid fun run set up by sister fisher in which we were in groups running blindfolded/ with a cup of water/a sack of sugar/ and tied together (all individually) in which we had a lesson later on about. It was dumb. We just ran around the neighborhood.

Tell the Olivers and the Bevans that I would love to see them. they might just have to do some missionary work with us if we see them so that we can walk and talk. Tell them that if they are coming from Missoula they will see me. Otherwise they won't.

I can't remember what the rest of the letter said but I love being here in Montana and I can tell you that this has to be the best mission in the world. Everything about it is awesome. I wish I could write a novel every week of what has happened to me but I can't. There are some other cool stories that I would love to tell but I'm done for today.

We are teaching some awesome people and have had some great times.
We have a member missionary fireside this Sunday so we should see how that goes. I look forward to the stuff that is being sent and everything else I hear. make sure you guys never forget to write me

LOVe me do. Elder Pleywood
