Kyle's Bike and Mower Shop

Hi Guys.
What is up woth y'all. I am good. This week y'all get the weekly breakdown. Ready? here we go-
Monday- P-day, played basketball and it was super fun. While we were riding around at night my pedal broke and was just a little stub.
Tuesday- we rode like 5 miles to the nearest bike shop, called "kyles bike and mower shop." It reminded me of the Food Storage/ paintball/ violin shop in st. george. Needless to say, the selection was slim, they didn't even have patches. I bought some pedals, but they were 1/2 inch instead of 9/16, so I walked back in to return them, and he didn't have any 9/16ths left. So, Kyle pulled the pedals off of his bike and told us to come back after Thursday because he was getting a shipment.
Wednesday- We rode up to the church for a meeting, it was good. Then, we had to ride home, and when we got home we saw this huge nail sticking like an inch out of Elder Petersen's tire. We had no spares or patches, so we were on foot.
Thursday- We planned all day, then a member took us to dinner at Red Robin. Yum. It was good. Then, he was going to come out on exchange with us, but couldn't, so we walked around all night.
Friday- Some other missionaries picked us up for a Zone Training at the church and gave us patches. Woo, back in commission!
Saturday- We rode to the church for correlation, then back to Kyle's bike and mower shop. It was a lot of biking in the heat of the day. Kyle hooked us up with free patches and gave elder Petersen a free tube too. It was great. Now I'm ridin' dirty with some cool new pedals. We also stopped at Sonic for happy hour. I recommend the super peach ring slushy.
Sunday- We got a less active member to take us to church. Needless to say, we got there at like 1:28. Good thing we are in a spanish ward so it was like 15 minutes early still haha. After church, the bishopric and their family always feed all the missionaries, so that is awesome and we eat really well. Then, the Elders Quorum took all the missionaries on splits and we visited a bunch of Less Active members. We did a double exchange! (Where Elder Petersen goes with one member and I go with a different one and we can teach 2 lessons at a time). It was awesome. I went and saw 4 families in like 1 1/2 hours, it was the most efficient visit I have ever seen.
Anywhey, that is the week. It was a rough one, but it's over now and we are still goin strong. Love y'all and hope that you are having fun in Bear Lake/ at home!
Love,
Cole

P.S. I can't send pictures here in Haltom because the cord doesn't work and I cant buy a different adapter because 1. we have to shop at kroger (boo!) and 2. My home visa is officially expired. Sorry!
