Busy Busy

Hey Family,
This email will have to be shorter then my last ones, we have a very busy day today. My E-mail day is changing again to Wednesdays, instead of Sundays, so expect one then, after this one.
Well this week has been very very busy. WE HAD "Transfers"!!! on Tuesday. And now im with Elder Kimball, and he is very fun, he just Graduated from High school (while he was here) and so he is very young, well 18. Its very fun this week. And i still am driving the Tuba car!, but i let Elder Kimball drive some too.
On P-day we went down to the river to play, and we skipped rocks in, it was right before a big storm, and so we left before it started to rain. The pictures im attaching are from that, and one is of my new companion! Then the other is just the mississippi.

So about the Hardy's our cooks. We are their 5th"ish" cousins, or something like that. He is a descendant of the brother of Jesse Hardy. But they were wondering why LaVera Hardy was born in Canada, and it just so happens that it is the same place that they are from. [In response to this question, we sent to Billy a little 2 page history of Jesse Hardy – He was called by the Church in 1899 to take his family to settle in Alberta, Canada. And that is how Billy’s great grandmother got there.] This week we have eaten things that the Hardys fix for us like Tacos, Fettuccini Alfredo, mashed potatoes, hamburgers, and a bunch of delicious deserts. and its good every day. All 17 of us in the band eat together..
Yesterday we got to go to Quincy for an arts festival, it was a long drive, but we did a good concert. Today we are super busy. Right after i write this we have our prep meeting with The Mission President, and then we are going to the Joseph Smith grave site, and we are playing there for the commemoration of the martyrdom put on by the Community of Christ Church (formerly RLDS Church). Then at about 3, we are going to Carthage, and we will play at the jail for a little service we are doing there, and it starts at 5:17 the supposed actual time of the Martyrdom (because that is when John Taylors watch stopped). Then we have a Fireside by A’ccappella group, Vocal point. They are going to be here the rest of this week, and we will get to see their concert once. Its right after Sunset on the Mississippi.
Well i hope Hillary had a great time at Girls camp. Nauvoo is going better then ever, and getting hotter! I hope Rocklond, and Lindsey are able to come and have alot of fun! I might have sent linsdey an email, but it was to her old address, i think, i dont know.
I write in my journal ever day, so if i forget to tell you about anything, it will be in there. And we keep "Remember" journals, and we write anything that we want to remember. Sister Ludwig gave us those.
well i’ve got to go.
Love, Elder Loveless!
