Querida Familia,

Wow, so where do i begin....
Monday i got "E.T.ed". i was in a car all morning driving up to an area in the north, where i would wait for my new comp., who came striaght from the mtc! (fresh blood!) and he is waiting for his visa so he can go to..... guess where...!!!BRASIL!!!!!!!!!!! and guess what his portugues is pretty dang good! so we talk in portugues all the time!!!! it is soooooo nice to finally be able to use my portugues with someone! i was teaching my last comp, but it just isn't the same. My comps name is Elder Pearson by the way. he is from provo. so after meeting up with my comp, we then drove another 2 hrs to get to our new area. where niether of us have ever stepped foot before. but luckily we live with two elders who basically know what is going on up here. Now, I am living out in the middle of no where, or should i say, the middle of cornfields! (my comp says hi) We drive every where we go because it is all so stinkin far away! and yesterday ew were knocking doors for more than 2 hrs..... it was really long. but hopefully things will get better as we go. i'm sure they will.
so to be honest, i feel freakin old, but at the same time, i don't feel any different at all. so yeah. didn't really do anything yesterday. we don't have anything in the house to make, so i couldn't really make anything. but the Branch Presidents wife gave me a brownie with a candle in it, so that was cool. i probably won't get the packages till the 13 of august. that is when President is coming up here. and please tell grandma and grandpa wilson, and grandpa campbell and aunt lynette thanks for me! lynette sent some of her energy/protein bars. they were pretty good.
so since we are out here in the middle of nowhere, i will probably be forced to by a gps for my birthday, so we can find our way around. i hope they will have some cheap ones. we will probably go and look at those today.
well, thats about all the new stuff that is going on with me. i hope you are all doing good and that everyone is happy. thanks for all of the e-mails! it was great to hear from everyone!!!!
Eu Amo Voces!!!!!
take care!

Elder Wilson
