Curley's-Well that is cool that you had church canceled, sorta. Bishop Taylor said that if he can make it to the Church so can everyone else, so he does not like to cancel is what I got out of that. Wow you have a ton of snow, I am so jealous. I go on my mission and we get a good year of snow, just my luck I guess. Well that is good though, the state can use the water. It is still snowing up here. The other day we had the opportunity to shovel 5 feet off one members house, than about 5.5 off another members house. We have been getting a little bit of snow. Yeah President Hinckley's funeral was beautiful. I was able to watch it over at the Bishop's house. President Monson seemed like he was ready to be Prophet, and he seems like he will do a wonderful job. Well Elder Nash is leaving me. He is going to Nevada City, it is by Yuba City and Tahoe. My new companion is Elder Gardner, he is also from Utah. Everything has been going really well out here. The work has been slowed by the weather, but we are getting a lot of service opportunities which is good. We don't do anything to our vehicles, they are all new enough that we just take them in and get everything done. Zone Conference is coming up, I just do not remember when. Well I am glad to hear that things are going well for you and that the family is doing well also. I hope that things keep going well for you. Take care of yourselves.-Elder Brickey


The Mommy-Yeah we have been getting slammed with snow. We have about 6 feet at our apartment. It snows than is sunny than snows some more. We just keep getting more and more. This has been the most snow that Mount Shasta has gotten in a LONG time is what I keep hearing. I never got sick though, which was nice. Elder Nash is actually leaving me, tomorrow. He is going to Nevada City, down by Yuba City and Tahoe and Reno. I was able to watch the Funeral at the Bishop's house. It was weird to think that I will never get to see him in General Conference anymore. It feels like I have lost a Grandpa or someone of great importance in my life. He has been my prophet. Baptized, confirmed, recieved the aaronic and mechezidek priesthood, mission call, and endowment all under him. President Monson though seems like he is ready to take over so that is good. Well I hope that things are going well for you at home. Things here have been crazy with all the snow and shoveling that we do. It seems like I have not taught anyone in forever. Well I hope that all is well and I will talk to you later. Love you tons.-Elder Brickey
