Dear Family, So the weather has been pretty mild since I have gotten to Missoula the past week and a half. It has been in the 20's but on Sat. night snow just let loose. We bundled up and went to our appointments. When we got out of one about 8pm a weird inversion was taking place. Because Missoula sits in a valley the fog and everything does something weird. It looked like it was early morning and it was light outside. It is very cool. But ya the weather is dropping back down. Tonight (which is Sunday) is supposed to be 1 degree and then tomorrow will probably be negatives again. Ughh. We have another investigator that we have an appointment with this next week who we are getting a baptismal date with. February we should have 7 which is insane but that would be so cool. Monday night a member picks us up and is like so what restaurant are we going to?? RED ROBIN... oh yeah! I got the A-1 Peppercorn Burger .... sooo good! The work here in Missoula is going great. I just got out of an appointment with a young couple who were kind of iffy, but I saw a poster of an MMORPG Game (similar to WOW) and I went off. We got in and we were able to teach a first lesson and get new investigators. It was sweet! I'm putting my gaming knowledge to good use! Yeah baby! So we can't ride bikes in the snow and we always either don't have the car. We walked like 4 miles to the University on Tues. afternoon for no one to be home but that comes with the nametag, at least we got good exercise. Have a great week. Love, Elder Hinton
