Estoy Cacahuate Dallin Poulson 7/2/2016

Wellllll, hello there! 
Lets see, what happened this week? 

Oh yeah, we got a new mission president!!  His name is President Bush, from Washington D.C.!! How cool is that! He was a lawyer. He served in Argentina a long time ago. He is super nice and awesome. I haven't spent a ton of time with him but they seem to love it here already! 

President Dester left the day after President Bush got here. Man, that was a hard goodbye! He is such a great example to all of us as missionaries. But I guess after 3 years in honduras, he could probably use a break! 

As for the Ruta, I don't think anything really abnormal happened! There are some really cool street performers at the stop lights that juggle machetes and flaming balls and flaming machetes  though! I will try to get a video of it some time!  

Part of my job in the office is making sure all the houses have smoke detectors. I got a call yesterday from the elder that I replaced about a situation with his smoke detector. It is brand new but started  beeping really loud like once a minute at 2:30 am. He read the back and it said that it was expired if it beeps once every minute. He tried deactivating it but it wouldn't stop beeping. So he puts it in the cupboard but cant sleep cause it is too loud. He puts it in the fridge! Still way too loud to sleep. Puts it in between his two mattresses, nope! Way too loud. So he is super angry at this point and puts it in the pila!  (a giant tub of water in each house) and what does he hear? BEEP. He thought that it was kind of sealed tight and maybe the water might not get in very fast. It kept beeping for 5 more minutes. So, angry as can be, he goes outside and throws it down the road! It makes a quieter beep and he is satisfied. He goes inside and BEEEP. WHAT? Turns out they threw away the OLD detector and it was the one beeping! Not the new one! haha I was laughing way too hard when he told me the story. 
Last PDay I gave the little old man that cleans our house a haircut! President came to pick us up mid-haircut and saw me through the gate and started laughing! It was funny! 
I also gave Elder Elmer a haircut today. Super hard thing to do! (Camyll might be proud of me though!)

We were driving back home one night and a car had broke down in the front of an intersection, we kept driving but then we all kinda decided to go back and help them. It was kinda raining but we flipped a U and went and pushed their car out of traffic! Felt good! 

Well, we still don't really have investigators, so we just contact and teach random people. I will be letting yall know when we get some awesome people to teach!

Hope ya all have a great week!  Dallin

Most my pics are boring this week!
