Elliot's April 18 email and pictures of his apartment in Purcell

Here's the latest email from Elliot.  We're glad to hear that the recent tornadoes were not a problem where he is, although a flying kiddie pool must have been quite a sight!  He describes where his current apartment is so I have included a couple of screen shots of the complex.  He's living in the north end of Purcell, just off the main road (Green Avenue) that runs through town.  Check out the pictures after the jump.

Hola!

Como estan?

Our apartments are at the corner of 9th and Hallmark Blvd in Purcell. I think they're called Wind Ridge. It is terribly windy. The other day it was so windy that we couldn't even bike, so we walked, but it was crazy. One of those kiddie pools that you fill up with a hose flew past us in the air and rolled down the street like a half mile. Only in Oklahoma. I'm pretty sure that was the day where all of the other storms happened. We were just fine though here in Purcell. We're just hoping for some rain to because it's pretty bad out here.

Things are going really well out here actually. The members are super active in missionary work, and it's great. In fact, everyone that we're teaching right now has come from a member referral. And even though our teaching pool isn't super huge, we're seeing success and I'm really excited for what these next few transfers might bring. We've taught some awesome people these past few days, and I can really see how the work of members sharing the Gospel is paying off! The members even come out teaching with us quite a bit, and it's been mega awesome.

Well, I gotta run, sorry for the short email, but know that I'm happy and healthy and grateful for everything!

Love you!

Elder Elliot Adair
