Weekly email 7

 Hey y'all! 
     So we had transfers this past week and I got a new companion! His name is Elder Pontious. (Yes, just like Pontious Pilate). 
     The last P-day it rained cats and dogs all day so I got soaked but that's just part of life. The first day with elder Pontious someone, who's name rhymes with smontious, rode a little too close on the bikes and I slammed the brakes and fell off the bike for the first time on the mission and scraped my hands. It wasn't too bad tho but I had a rock stuck in there which hurt pretty good. 
     We found five new people this week who said that they would be interested in meeting with us so that's awesome! Usually we will find one every week or so, so five is a crazy amount. 
     We saw an armadillo the other day while we were riding our bikes back to the apartment. We went through this nature trail as a shortcut and this armadillo ran right in front of me and I didn't hit it but it got close. Oh and it also rained for like the past four days. So the lake flooded a decent amount but we still went over for our studies. I also fed a few ducks who were hanging out there. 
     I got a free drink at taco bell too. That happens a lot. Like the more miserable we look the more often we get free drinks, like we want to pay but they just give us the hand and they're like "nah man it's good" so that's always fun. We had dinner with a family and they have three cockatoos and one was $10,000! Can you believe that? I can't. 
     But yeah that's about how the week went. I hope you guys are all doing well back home!
- Elder Rogers
