Talked to Alex

Hi all,

We talked to Alex today.  His flight is Delta #2456, leaves at 8:45 AM and gets to Minneapolis at 12:30 PM.  He is really excited, but nervous and everything in between.  He is not sure when his P-Day will be but he has been told he will be in a members home for Thanksgiving, so I don’t know if they will be at the Mission home until after Thanksgiving or in their area.

He is traveling with 11 Elders and 2 Sisters, all going to Minnesota.  That is a big group.  He had to be up at 3:15 AM to finish packing and get dressed so he is running on adrenaline since he didn’t get to bed until after midnight.

You could hear a little apprehension in his voice but he was strong and had a great experience at the MTC.  Of course he wants to be perfect so all he could think of was all the things he should have been doing before he got to the MTC, so he has told Brady what he needs to do.

The temperature here in SLC was 37 at the airport, in Minneapolis it is 13 with a wind of 12 MPH that takes it down to -1.  I hope he gets that warm coat soon.

Well, I have to get back to work.  Everyone stay warm during this storm.

Love ya,

Dad
