Translation

Actually, it is not for 1000 days. It is just that 3 years times 365 days plus June 27 through June 30, 2008 equals 1098 days, and that is way too cumbersome to convert into a blog headline. Futhermore, our release date will not be determined until May or June of 2011. Therefore, 1000 Days sounded just about right, more or less. Having noted all that, we are humbled and thrilled (Pres. Uchtdorf would refer to the feeling as "joyfully overwhelmed") about having this marvelous opportunity to serve in La Mision Mexico Veracruz.

Con amor,

Mom needed tangerines to put in the Christmas stockings of the office elders. She couldn't find any decent ones in the store, but we were up north in citrus country, Martinez de la Torre, on the 23rd. We saw this truck and flagged him down. He said that these aren't very good because the best come on in November, but we didn't care. Neither did the missionaries. They'll eat anything. He wanted 5 pesos (less tham 40 cents) for a full bag of tangerines. We gave him all our change, I think 17 pesos, and a Tabernacle Choir Christmas DVD. That'll teach hinm to try to undercharge us.
