Elder Bullock had an audit to do for a couple of hours so I found two young companions to go visiting with me. I knew they would know the way to everyone's house and that would be a big help for me...besides I wanted their company.
Aren't they cute? Meet Dolly on the left along with Sasha on the right!

These are Dolly's parents. When I first arrived to pick her up, they were sitting under their house in the shade cleaning a bunch of little fish for their dinner. They probably caught them in one of the trenches.

You can barely see that Nanda is cleaning out the guts while Jimmy is scraping off the scales. Doesn't that just make a cute couple thing to do?

This is Jillian, Dolly's scrumptious little sister. Doesn't her whole face just light up when she smiles?

Our first visit was to Sister Washington. Notice the cord on her iron. I mean, notice that there is no cord! She says she cut it off and just heats up the iron on her stove.

Dolly and Sasha chose the rest of those we visited and of course our visits were to some of the other youth in their branch.

At each visit, we added another young person to our backseat to accompany us for the next families we visited. By the time we arrived at the Narine's, we had added Alvin and Priya.
The Narine family has 4 daughters and their dad's name is Tall Man. You can guess why!
Here are all the young people who ended up with us at the Narine house... the 4 who came with us plus 4 members of the Narine family . One daughter and the dad are missing from the photo. The mom is on the right wearing the blue skirt.

Just before we arrived at the Narine's house, Elder Bullock called to say he was finished with his audit and asked if I'd come get him from the church. You'll see him in some of the next photos.
The Narines have this old fashioned tractor that I just loved. I had to climb inside and try it out. One of the Narine girls quickly found me a hat so I'd look like a real farmer as I posed for pictures.

Here's the front view. Isn't it classic? They tell me it still works; it just needs a new huge back tire and when they get some money, they'll buy one and start using it once again.

Suddenly, I noticed something hanging on the line that I knew would make a great background for a photo with Elder Bullock. I said to him, "Will you move over here just a bit and let me snap your photo?" And guess what, he did. Check it out!

As we turned to leave, the Narines walked us to our car. I paused so I could take a photo of their house.

We walked on a little farther and Cinthia asked, "Oh, please take my photo hanging by my knees from the tree." You can see that Alvin just had to get into the photo, too.

By this time, we'd been gone for hours and unfortunately, I had to make a little rest stop right about here!

Well, that's all for now!
