It is pouring rain outside so we are pretty much trapped in the house for the rest of the night! Bummer. I don’t know what to do for the next 41/2 hours before we have to go to bed.
We just finished dinner. Elder Lee made curry chicken and dumplings and boiled green bananas. They are pretty good. Now I’m stuffed and I don’t want to lay down so I decided I would write you and kill some time. I guess I will tell you about Jamaica. Well mostly Linstead because that’s all I really know about. Linstead is up in the mountains. You can get into some pretty good jungle here. But that is only when you go up towards Princess Field, Banbary and High Mountain. All those are in our area. This area is really big. I have only been to Princess Field, Banbary, Treadways, Bogwalk and Charlemont. We mostly stay in Linstead. 
There are a lot of good nice people here in Jamaica and then there are some that are fried that have smoked too much Ganja! They are mostly the ones that will yell at you and say that we are making Jamaica worse than it already is. It’s probably a good thing I can ‘t understand everything they say. I’m starting to pick up on the patios though. There are about 300 members in the surrounding areas. But only about 100 come out and are active. Alot of people on the church records have either moved or they don’t know where they are. It’s a pretty good area. Elder Peterson said Linstead was his favorite area he has been to. The members are nice. They are just good people. We have dinner appointments every night except for Friday and Saturday nights. That saves me lots of money. There are a lot of fun members…ones that like to mess with us and cause trouble. Sister Tara Richardson (Blake) is one of them…she is funny. She lives in Deeside. Let’s see. I loved my trainer Elder Peterson. He is so awesome. He and I got along perfect! Like you would think I had known him for a long time. He is cool. Totally gonna have to hang out with him afterwards. I was bummed when he got transferred. I wanted to stay with him the rest of his mission. He loved to have fun too but we worked hard while having fun and that was the best. It really made the time fly by. My first transfer flew by so if all the rest go like that WOW! I’m gonna be home before I know it! But I doubt they will all go that fast or that good! It’s only gonna be as good as I make it, I know. My new companion Elder Lee is pretty cool too. He is a Jamaican from Ocho Rios. I’m kindof stressed right now cause I hardly know the area and don’t know where to go and teach. So Breht, do you miss giving me hair cuts every 2 weeks? I sure wish I could get a good haircut. Elder Peterson didn’t do that bad of a job. And it was free too so I couldn’t complain. Well “Bertha” hope you’re doing good. Thanks for being such a good sister and for always putting up with me and all my frequent hair cuts. Thanks for being such a good example by getting hitched in the temple! Couldn’t ask for anything more. I pray for you all the time.
Love ya Elder
