You guys jumped the gun, we do changes tonight so I haven´t seen my new comp or area but it is Elder Montes. Maybe you remember him from Salto. We shared a ward there anyway I was not to excited. Elder Montes is a good guy and a friend but he is also trucho and I am so tired, I don´t want to have to fight with him over crap, but we will see, it is quit possible that it is only a one change thing. But I think mom is right. It is obvious that I have not learned what I need to learn. Something that dawned on me the other day is that these companions are really changing or at least showing me who I am and will probably have a big impact on the rest of my life. This change I need to work hard. Who knows Elder Montes could have changed but we will see. At least I have people from my group down there, I think I share a ward with Elder Tyree which will be sweet. I guess I should tell you where I am going. I am going to Montevideo, that is the other reason why I wasn't to excited the work is really hard there but I heard the city is nice so I will have to send pics. We will see how it goes.
In other news I read in the ensign that you have a new Mission President in Spokane kind of cool, also I think Ben has one to. I finished Jesus the Christ a little bit ago it was an awesome book and also I don´t need the conference in English we got them last week. Today I am going to buy a poncho made of wool as a recuerdo and for the mornings when I study it should be pretty sweet. The gauchos use them.
So I don´t have a lot of time but yesterday was an adventure. My face was destroyed. I have a cut from my Eye to my mouth. I wasn´t going to send a pic but what the heck. Mom I am fine! Anyway, the story, so we were walking down the street in the country and 4 guys came out of the woods asking for money, they were pretty mad when we didn´t have much. They started punching my comp then one with a knife..... Haha just kidding they would have called you if that happened. No we were in the house of familia Motta, in there back yard. This family has six girls so I feel right at home there. We were talking to the dad when one of them says lets race back to the house so we went off. His back yard is full of gardens I saw that I was coming up on one when I turned I saw a fence but it was about knee high next to a tree "I was like ha I can jump that easy". So I jumped as it turns out the fence was about a foot taller then me and the top wire was barbed wire which hit me in my mouth and face. I made it over or through I guess the fence but I lost the race. Luckily they are from the country and the dad came over cut up this plant and put it on my face, it was aloe I think. Anyway good times in the mission and that family will never forget me now. But I am alright and luck I didn´t get it in the eye.
Thanks for everything. I sure Love you!
Love Elder Wray
PS. This is the family some of them are not members of the family just friends and a cousin and some of them are asleep I think they are nine or ten in total.
