Monday- SO last P-day was sooo awesome! We went to the NAS museum, it was so cool. We saw a bunch of F-18s F-16s and some T-6s it was super cool. We also got to see the Blue Angels! If anyone has a chance to look them up it is super cool!! I have so many pictures of Monday it was so much fun. Elder Christensen had some of his investigators come by and they took us out to this fire BBQ place called sunnys it was so good. Then we went back to the museum and looked around some more. We have a member in our ward he is like the 2nd counselor to the bishop. so he is a trainer for fighter pilots and so we were able to go into this sectioned off place only for military. He met us outside of this big building and he took us in to this room that had this huge round metal ball things lol so he let us fly in these simulators and it felt sooo real! Like some of the elders who were standing up watching had to sit down because they felt super dizzy when I was taking turn or doing like barrel rolls. So brother monks asked who was from vegas? I was like me. Hes like watch this... He simulated me flying in las vegas it was soo cool! SO I flew over my house and showed everyone where I lived and showed them where my high school was and where I worked hah it was so sick. Then I flew downtown and was going like sideways through like two hotels downtown. It was so much fun! I kinda felt at home. So that was Monday. I also got my family something aka ill be sending that this week probably. I think yall will like it.
Tuesday- Friday- So we have had a lot of work seeing a lot of people but then again a lot of people don't keep their appointments and it sucks. But some funny things happened. We were riding our bikes to see some LAs (Less Actives) and we see this like little like house on a post but its like a book shelf. So I was like looking in there and its just like this random book shelf full of books for anyone I guess it was so weird hahah so im like huh might as well put a Book of Mormon in there lol
Friday!! ROAD TRIP TO TALLY!!!!! SO I had to drive all the way to lynn haven to stay there Friday night, which was super cool because we drove all along the coast and through destin which is where my sister served which was super cool and I also realized that she served the most spoiled mission well for her first area that is hahha IT is so BEUATIFUL there! SO the next morning we got up and left at like 5:30 am to drive the rest of the way to Tallahassee. SO I drove like a solid 4 hours. I was so tired but we had a blast! So we show up to the stake center in tally at like 8:30 am and we get some good seats like 3 rows back from the front so like right in the middle. Then at like 9 or something I cant remember, but Elder Gary E. Stevenson from the Quorum of the 12 Apostles walked in and so did Elder Parker and Elder Maynes from the Quorum of the 70. We all got up and were able to go shake their hands. PS I am never going to wash this hand hahha jk But I got to talk to an Apostle of the Lord and shake his hand! It was so amazing! They all talked about some things we can do as missionaries to improve our work. The spirit was so strong there and it was so amazing to hear him speak. He moved around a lot and like was walking up and down the chapel talking to us. It was so amazing to hear how simple yet how powerful his testimony was.
We then went to a park where all the Missionaries got to hang out and talk for a little it was so fun to see everyone in the mission! We then went to this place called chubbys hahah it was so good and the name was interesting but its name fits haha We then went and drove past FSU. Everyone said they can see me serving there... lol oh no. But it was so cool to see the stadium.
That was my week yall and I hope yall have a great week! I love you and I pray for you.
Love, Elder Graham
