Well I found these letters in my book the other day so I figured I had better get them in the mail soon or I will be hand-delivering them.

Well in three months time from today I will be back in town. Crazy to think huh? Sure is crazy how fast the time has/is going. Transfer calls are already this Saturday. I already know what's happening to me though. We met up with Pres. Hendricks yesterday talked with him for a while. He told me "You have every right to know...you're one of the best missionaries I've got. You just have been top notch! He said I'm going to have to call Salt Lake to make sure I can keep the mission open once you leave... Haha! He was all well you're making the last corner now just whip and spur to the finish! I said well you know president I never did much barrel racing! It was a good one! Anyways he told me I am going to be training my last two transfers again. He said the best thing you can do for this mission is leave us with a superstar missionary like yourself. So train him good! He also asked if I was glad I made the decision to come out. I told him it was the best decision I've ever made! And that's the truth! I left that interview feeling about 10 feet taller than when I got in there. He is just an awesome mission president. But anyhow things are little bumpy here and Old Harbor. Just can't seem to find anyone that's willing to act. It's pretty tough especially on the new guy. He has had a rough second transfer but he is definitely learning from it. We have been doing a lot of walking around trying to find people but nothing has come of that yet. But we're not giving up I know something will eventually come of it! Other than that I'm doing good. Just peddlin away. Good thing it's flat here. That makes the walking a lot easier. Sure has been raining a lot lately. But it is the rainy season now. Well I don't really know what else to say right now. I'm getting tired. Elder Barker is out cold! Must have worked too hard today. Anyhow I miss you all. In three months time I will be home and the way the months are going it will seem like three weeks. 

Well I love you all. Thanks for everything! Love Stetson

 Things are going good it's Pday June 11. Crazy to think about the time and how fast it has gone. I told Elder Stuart that I have only eight sundays left. That's crazy! I honestly don't know what I'm going to do when I get home and it's coming down to that time. Seems like only a dream. But it's been the best dream ever! Couldn't be doing anything better right now. It's been rough and tough some days that over all it's been awesome! Still got some time left so I'm going to push to the end of the line... that's if I don't faint! It's been super hot lately and lots of walking. It's been an awesome transfer with Elder Stuart. he's still pretty quiet in lessons that he is coming around. Anyhow only a few more weeks and I'll be on the iron bird as the Rastas say. Rasta man says "nah fly pin nuh iron bird." but I'm not Rasta so I'll be on it! Well I love you all! See you real soon!
