I’ve got very, very
short time today, so I’ll just say a few things and
send some pictures. I
think I’ll be able to get back on a little later
but here are a few
things
You think my hair is
short now? This is after it has been growing for
7 weeks! I also got my
transfer news today, no change. Same companion
same area. However
now Elder Hall is the DL...
(This is the caption he
sent with this picture “Restaurant” haha)
Its Nsenene
(in-sen-nen-aye) season! It lasts about 2 and half weeks.
Nsenene is a type of
grasshopper that they eat here. And they love
it! They set up big
aluminum sheets in a box or circle then they put
extremely bright lights
in the middle. Then the grasshoppers come to
the light at night, hit
the sheets and slide down the sheets into the
barrels. Then they pull
the arms, legs, and wings off, cook them in a
pot over the fire. Then
they eat them like popcorn. I tried it this
week. It’s weird. It
doesn’t taste bad.. It’s just that I know what it is
so that was my first and
last grasshopper.
(metal sheets with
lights to catch the grasshoppers)
(barrel full of yummy
grasshoppers)
(yummy bowlful of
grasshoppers! When in Rome, huh? Haha)
I finished the Book of
Mormon this week! Read the whole thing in about
3 months! I'm starting
the New Testament now.
Bats,
There are a lot of bats
here. This week we found some baby fruit bats.
We found like 40 of them
all over the house ha I caught one! It was
very cool! They feel
very odd. They are furry, but they are very soft
skinned on their wings
it was really neat!
(New house pet. I just
know I did not send enough hand sanitizer for this!)
I'm always glad to hear
about the way this mission is having an effect
on so many here or at
home. It’s comforting especially in this area
where we just can find
anyone.. :(
Carter missing me yet?
I’m glad to hear his testimony is growing
that's almost all I
could ask for being here. I really think about him
a lot, where he will
serve. How he will feel. I really miss him!
Carlie I think is fine
haha I think her and I will have plenty of time
together while carter is
gone on his mission haha if she isn’t married
by the time she is 18 ha
I really miss them.
Elder Bennion
