Week #3

Family & Friends,

We finished Trek week 3. We started the week by going to the open house at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple. Three of the Missiomary couples went. Elder & Sister Williams had there daughter come to see them here at the ranch so they didn't go with us.

We had three groups here this week plus we rented 30 Handcarts to several stakes. I changed wheels on two carts this week. One group brought two Handcarts back broken, so I will repair them this week. Sister Hawk and I had a group from Centerville Utah and they had a wonderful time even with the wind and rain on Thursday night. I enclosed some pictures of there shelters they they built using the Handcarts.

I believe we had a very good week. The Missionary couples always work 12 to 14 hours on the first day (Wednesday)then thing slow down to 10 hours, on Thursday and Friday with a 14 hours day on Saturday.

Our son Dustin and his family came up Saturday evening and brought dinner for us so that helps Sister Hawk and I. We had a couple of hour visit and then they went home we went to bed early.

Sister Hawk is still having problems with her knee but we think it will get better. She understands she can not walk with the treks this year. I have walked 33.5 miles with the treks so far. I walked 8 miles on Saturday. My right knee is a little sore today.

I enclosed pictures of the Missionary Couples at the temple and of the camps after the rain.

God Bless all
Elder & Sister Hawk
