Dear Curtis,

How is everything going? How are your investigators doing? I am in a digital photo class at school. Mr. Davenport is teaching. It is a Quality Teaching Day. I got a call Saturday from the mission home. I cannot remember the Elder’s name. He said that you had received the 3 packages. How are the knife and camera? Mom sent two more packages Friday. She found a shaver head on ebay, so it is on its way.

Mike Kinghorn is a former student of mine and also worked for me during the summer. He is a fish and game officer. He wants to take Clain, Braxton and me out in air boats and round up the geese and band them in May. I think that will be fun. I have the birds out 50 miles now and have not lost any. I did have two bands not scanning so I thought I was out two birds, but they are all there.

We went to the temple dedication yesterday. That was cool. I hope you don’t have another experience like you had on the bus last week. I am glad you are all right. I will keep checking my email during the class. I love You.

Love,

Dad

Things are doing good here in Ecuador. I am in Guayaquil, because I lost my senso and I had to come to Guayaquil to denounce my censo so that I can get another one. I got two of my packages today, the camera and the knife, so I am happy. I will get the other package Wednesday. The Geese sounds like fun. You should see if Skyler can go with you, too. He would like that. Take lots of pictures of the geese for me.

I was wondering because it is later than usual. Did Skyler email you? What was the Elder’s name that called me?

Dear Curtis,

How is everything going? How was the Zone Conference? Did you get your package this week? I have started going to the water aerobics class with mom. We go on Tuesday and Thursday nights and Saturday morning. It’s been good.

What new and interesting things have happened to you this week? How is the rain? It’s snowing here this morning. I have started separating my breeders. I am about done breeding for this year for my young bird team. I am going to put some special matings together when it warms up a little.

The time changed Saturday night so you are only one hour ahead of us now. I had Clain take the old birds out Saturday. He only went to Ogden Bay It took some of them a day to come home and I am still missing two. It’s nice to have more daylight at night now.

Where did you get your shaver at? We are having a hard time finding new heads for it. Have you received any emails from Skyler? Mom he said he sent some last week.

Well, I will check back in a little bit.

I Love You.

Love,

Dad

I bought the shaver at the Walmart in Syracuse, but if you can´t find the blades I can buy a new shaver here for fairly cheap or I can use razors again but they irritate my skin here. I don´t know why, but they do.

Sounds like the birds are a little rusty. They need some good runs to get it back again. Here in Ecuador it is hot and humid and rainy, so enjoy the cold while you can because before long it will be hot and arid and hot in Utah again.

I will check again. Clinton did not have them. Did you get the package?

No, I didn´t receive the package this last week, but maybe this week. I have to go, but I love you.
