Jace in Georgia: Lot's of :)!

Hey there elder! How is your week going?
I had a ton of fun in Flaming Gorge. Went up Thursday night and set up my sent, got up at six and had breakfast with everyone else and this one sisters chocolate lab puppy named Coco. She was a cutie, then we went river rafting for three hours and I got burnt on my upper legs and shoulders, and also where my life jacket wasn't covering, so I have three squares going up my side. Lol and we also roasted a whole pig. When we got up in the morning, we placed a bunch of big logs in the fire put and then piled a bunch of river stones on top of the wood. Lit that up and had o fan the flames for two hours until the stones became white hot. Then we took the wood out that wasn't burnt, and placed some wet cabbages and corn husks over the stone. Then the pig, some time foil, burlap sacked, and carpet of the pig to keep in the moisture, then we buried the pig with dirt to stop the steam from escaping.
And I came home yesterday. But while we were river rafting we saw a bunch if rainbow trout which made me mad because I didn't have my fishing pole with me.
Well that covers my week my friend I hope you are having fun and still enjoying being a missionary.
Love you buddy.
