We had another enjoyable week in Kenosha. The weather was comfortable, and was in the high 40's and low 50's almost every day of the week. Today the car thermometer says 68, so I can't complain anymore about weather. You’re all saved from my winter rants of "Its cold, my toes froze off!" I am late for emailing today because we decided to play Frisbee golf in the morning instead of going straight to the library. The trails were super muddy, and there was still some snow left. We had a hard time finding the beginning so we just started playing and enjoying the mud, all 6 Elders. J 
Kenosha Zone Conference - I'm way in the back peeking through.
Throughout the week we haven't had anything too unusual happen to us. We are still doing a lot of tracting and have now found five investigators each week for two weeks now. This does give our teaching pool a fresh face and hopefully some new people to start teaching (if they are home for their appointments). Remember last week I told you that we were going to the Jelly Belly factory in Pleasant Prairie/ Kenosha? We did go, and had a wonderful time. The only down side is that my camera died on the drive to the factory, so I have no pictures...sorry. The factory is more of a distribution warehouse for the Jelly Belly Company. They don't have any machines in the building; it’s just a tour and endless rows of boxes that contain billions of Jelly Belly’s. Of course they have their store where you can sample any flavor of Jelly Belly and the samples are endless. So us four Elders, a set of Sisters and the Senior Couple we had more than our fair share of Jelly Belly’s. I bought a few small bags, and I’m still eating Jelly Belly’s during my morning studies. Don't worry though; I'm brushing my teeth too.

Taste Tester's Heaven at the Jelly Belly outlet.
Too bad my camera died.
The other set of Elders in Kenosha are having a baptism on Friday, and then on Saturday we will be blessed with Elder Perry coming to our mission to give us some training. That's about all I really have to say for this past week.

Scripture for the week: 4 Nephi 1:15
And it came to pass that there was no contention in the land, because of the love of God which did dwell in the hearts of the people.

Thank you for your letters and prayers.
Elder Luymes
Everyone should have magnet letters on their fridge.
Life is so much more entertaining with them.
