Chainsaws!!! Well, just one chainsaw...

Friday was a day to remember! We (Elder Campbell and I) drove home from Leitchfield, Kentucky early that morning. When we got back, there were four missionaries in our apartment. Elder Baker, Elder Dellrie, Elder Gilbert, and Elder Gunter. Come to find out...Elder Baker went to the ER late Thursday/early Friday. He went in because his stomach was killin him and he thought it might have been appendicitis. He was told that he might have Crohn's Disease...that would be no bueno. Its just a might, but still a possibility. I guess Elder Gunter and Elder Baker were the ones that went to the ER and didn't get back until Friday morning at 5:45. So they were passed out, and Elder Gilbert wasn't feeling well either, so he was passed out, and Elder Dellrie...side note, the poor kid is a visa-waiter and so he gets jumbled around when missionaries need a third person or what not, un-side note...slept on the couch in the living room and answered the door in a daze when we knocked on it. Well, after that ordeal, Elder Gunter, Elder Campbell, and myself went to the Angels. And their last name fits them perfectly. They are both converts, have strong testiomonies, and are like the Grandparents of the ward here. They needed help dropping some trees in their backyard. It was awesome! Brother Wheeler, who is in our ward bishopric, chops down trees for a living so he came over and we started droppin the trees. He was the only one that handled the chainsaw, but we got to help by pulling the trees down and cleaning up the limbs. Brother Wheeler also cut the trunks into fireplace logs and we hauled those from the backyard to the front. I think we knocked down three fifty foot trees. One of the trees we dropped fell on the house, but didn't do too much damage. After all that, Sister Angel made some vegetable beef stew that knocked my socks off! Brother Angel made some awesome homemade bread and we ate that too. When we got home, I showered and shampooed a bunch of crap outta my hair. Bugs, tree bark, dirt, bugs, moss, sand, oh yeah and there were a ton of bugs on my body. It was a great morning. I Stand All Amazed...at Sister Angel's cooking, Brother Angel's bread, and dropping three huge trees and realizing the hard way that there are a ton of bugs in Tennessee.
