Farm Animals Hate Me
So this week has been fun. For P-day we went to Jerome, but due to the fact that we don't have a car we get a ride with another set of missionaries in Wendull. On the way down, we listened to a song that they had called Mucka Blucka which is just a bunch of guys singing chicken sounds. kind of like in the Muppets. So on Tuesday we went to a members house to help fix her chicken coop. and I thought it would be funny to say "Mucka Blucka" to some of the Chickens. Now after I said this 4 roosters came out and started squawking at me and trying to peck me. I wonder what I said? Later that day we went to an investigators house and upon leaving there was a bull behind a fence (Luckily) who was bucking around and snorting at me. It was pretty scary. Then on Thursday we where walking around and a horse started bucking and snorting at me. I'm guessing the Chickens told them what I said. Not a lot of actual missionary work happened. WENDULL! but we did get to see a Recent convert who is preparing to serve a mission he is really cool and he said that I inspired him to do so! It was pretty cool. but ya that's about it. I loved your letters and I wish I could've been at Freeman Park with you at our tree! Give Justin extra loves from me!
Love Elder Herrin

Wen-dull!
So transfers happened...and it stinks. Currently in Wendell we have one Investigator, zero referrals, and two wards. Wendell has a Subway, Papa Kelseys, and an Overpriced Grocery Store. We fill the days by driving around to members houses to visit them, but we can't do that now and I'll explain why latter. Elder Beatie is really nice...but he often forgets to inform me on anything, and has to be pushed to set up appointments. Patience will be required. So some not so Wen"Dull" moments we where doing some service for a member, pulling weeds, and she comes out of her house and is breastfeeding. and she wasn't covered. I'll just say I was not expecting that to happen in Wendell. Yesterday me and Elder Beatie where driving around and we came to a stop sign. Elder Beatie stopped and went and did not see the truck that was about to hit us. It took off our bumper but luckily we weren't hurt. I can just say that driving with Elder Beatie for the first couple days, I wasn't really surprised that it happened. I do like my companion but I would rather swim naked with cuts all over my body through a lake of hydrogen-peroxide than finish this transfer.
