Transferred to Farmville, VA

Well, Farmville is a pretty nice little town. Its got a lot of big town things
with a small town feel. WE live in a really nice duplex with another girl named
Andrea.(du means two, completely separate houses). So we went around and met our
neighbors and actually met some really great people to teach. one family is
kinda odd, they are into robots and what not, but the mom is really into family
history. She added 100 names to her lines within days of our last visit. Learn
from her.

We went running this morning down by the High School, really pretty day
outside. We also went to Hampden-Sydney yesterday which was really pretty too.
We just drove around the campus but it was founded in 1776 so really old
building. Very green though and very elegant. I loved it. It was like in a
forest, all hidden too because you go a few miles either way and it opens up and
becomes all dead. Its kinda magical I guess. We chopped wood for a 94 year old
member lady. It was a lot of fun. I got a couple of blisters from not chopping in
a few years but they are all better. We toured around her garage which hasn't
really been touched for about 8 years when her husband died. He restored old MG
Midgets...these tiny English speedsters. She said anyone could have it if they
will fix it up. So I thought about it. it would definitely need to be towed with
a lot of work done to it. Completely rebuilt and I know nothing about cars. But
I can figure it out. hey, free classic car, why not?

My companions are:
Elder Neugubauer- really tall,loves to work hard and keep at the
best we can be. he really inspires me to do better. Always hoping to have a good
time. ugly ties

Elder Johnson- really charitable, very humble, kinda quick to upsetness so we
have to tread carefully. looks forward to working in this area.

We have also committed ourselves to be praying for a baptism this transfer in
every pray we say. I'm not perfect but we are seeing more and more unfold as we
do so. for instance, our top guy and his fiancee are Bobby and Sam Carwile. His
kids are actually named Bobbie Jo and Robert. No joke either. (and yes I told
them). They are planning on marriage soon and baptism right after. They are very
prepared. well these southerners like to drive slow but they kick you off the
computer fast.
love to all y'all,

Elder Malone
