Can’t believe it has been that long since our district meeting at the border lol. Was wondering who the four elders were, and you answered that (Calgary mission). I’d forgotten. Recognized Cavanaugh, Bishop, Choi, and Oyler. Well, I hope that Canada stays strong and resists the bullying from drumph and that you get to make a trip to sovereign Canada someday soon, Shunn.

Time really flies! It's funny, I only remember the names of three of those Calgary elders. One of them was actually my MTC companion, though I never felt like we really connected. I would much rather have had Elder "Vickers" there, who was my MTC district leader and been sent to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, for his first area. That's farther north from Calgary than Calgary is from Salt Lake City!

Anyway, glad you're still around, and I hope one day we have a chance to catch up in person.

Re: “I hope one day we have a chance to catch up in person.” Absolutely. That would be lovely. Take care, Bill.

This article and its subject is really interesting. I’m especially impressed at your restraint in using a different euphemism each time for the Mango Mussolini.

Ha! I would have called it indulgence.
