Water Heaters



Hello!

Easter was yesterday, it was a really good day. The two sacrament meetings we had were very good and one lady who came for the first time wants to learn more! 

I ripped my pants (SFW)

We had a very eventful week. Our water heater broke (I need to stay away from those things). But it got replaced the same day, so that is nice. We ended up helping someone drain a water heater in their basement so they could replace the heating elements. This was the same day our water heater broke. Then, there were 4 times that water heaters came up in a discussion (before we brought up that ours had broken). 

We were supposed to learn about water heaters that day.

So, here is a gospel message about water heaters.

The world is full of bad things, like hard water. When a water heater is trying to warm up hard water, it collects calcium deposits and the heating elements get corroded. When the corrosion gets too bad, it stops working. So, if we want to avoid that then we need to install a water softener or get water from a different source to protect the heating element.

If you want to avoid being stuck taking cold showers, stay away from hard water and replace the heating element often. Luckily, we don't have to worry about the cost, we have a friend who gives us free heating elements anytime we need them.

Have an awesome week! Love you all!

-Elder Hazeslip


PS: I just realized that in my analogy, Buhl is the hydrological version of Sodom and Gomorrah. 

I just wanted to let you know that while the water in Buhl is very hard. It has a lot of good people. 

Thx

*Fun Fact: That's how Stoby's spelled our name earlier this month in Conway! Also since there was not a picture of his face, I used a picture of his lunch for the top photo.

Wow! This week was really good. I know because it felt like a few days, but looking back it contained a month of top quality content. Service: We did service at the Barnyard again. This week they had us pound in like 20 T-posts. They fenced in their entire front yard because too many chickens crossed the road. T: "We just can't figure out what it is that they want out there in the road..." Me (In my mind because I'm not that bold): An escape from their cruel existence? Anyway, I still saw the pig. This is the sow, they moved her in on her own because she is going to have babies and they don't want the other pigs to eat them... Pigs are pigs. S: On Tuesday, we went to read the Book of Mormon with S. As we were talking to him, he told us to follow him to the basement house to see if we could pick up his ammo can full of pennies. We could barely do it. Which reminds me of a riddle (see end for answer). What weighs mo...

THIS WEEK This format of email seemed to work well while I was in the MTC. So I'm going to do it like this again today. Tuesday: Tuesday was preparation day. We  went to Twin Falls. It was kinda rough because we had to go with some other Elders and it took longer than expected. But we did get all we needed. I will send you pics.  Wednesday: We went to Oakley! We got lost trying to find dinner and got the Cruze stuck in the mud. We are going to ask for the RAV4, anyway, I found some dead brush and stuck it under the wheel and we escaped. We had dinner and then went to visit a less active family to see how they were doing. We got lost and almost went to Utah. But we didn't. We went to go visit some other families but nobody was home. I don't remember what day this happened, but we also ended up behind the Oakley reservoir, I got pics. I'm fairly certain we visited Walter today too. He is a legend. He is from Peru, he was a shepherd an...

                    Elder Blashill y Yo                    Introduction of Characters: -Elder Blashill:  Mí compañero por el CCM. He's from Amarillo, TX and is also going to Boise. - Elder Utrilla:  Another missionary in our room. From Utah and going to Argentina. -Elder Hutchison:  Also in our room, from Utah and going to Ventura California. -Elder Foley:  Had 11 years of Spanish classes, but chose to be in the intermediate class instead of the native speaker class because he wanted más training en el CCM. From New Jersey and going to Logan Utah. Summary: So we recently found out that the only reason our district (the missionaries in my Spanish class, 6 companionships) has tablets is because Elder Foley is going on a tablet mission, so everyone else in the class gets a tablet to use cuando en el CCM. We are all very grateful for him. The biggest b...
