1000 Days in Veracruz

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,

When potholes show up suddenly, usually in the night, they are not marked unless a citizen does it. Usually someone will stick a 2x4 or a palm branch in it to warn drivers. This particular morning a recurring pothole dropped in (dropped out?) in the street in front of the office. Someone jammed a blue piece of tarp into the hole, but the office elders had a better idea. They hurried and created a little warning sign.
