P-day in Missouri (a letter from kenz)

Mackenzie arrived in St. Louis yesterday. Here is the letter he wrote this morning.

thank you for the goodies and the pillowcase and all that jazz.
its really humid, and hot, and i need to get a camelback today.
My companion is Elder Andersen, from Fort Worth, TX. he's 21, about
5'11",i'd guess 160 lbs, enjoys playing drums and singing. if you really want
toknow anything else, just let me know and i'll find out for you.
i'm serving in Chesterfield, which is a suburb of St. Louis. right now
we're teaching a few ppl, and one of which is sure she's going to get baptized.
we are in a full time car mission area, so we're in a car all the time, except
for when we're tracting, when we park the car at the end of astreet and walk up
the street. we met a lady named Yvette while we were tracting and taught her the
restoration. she said she's met withmissionaries before, but she seemed
pretty interested to give it anothershot.
My address isElder Mackenzie Morrison138 Log Trail Dr. Apt ABallwin, MO
63011hopefully i'll be here longer than 6 weeks, but you never know.
Chesterfieldis one of the richest places in the state. there are homes that are
in theads that are over a million. we saw one that had 4 bedrooms and
6bathrooms....which seems weird to me. I still have yet to go over to Townand
Country, which i hear has mansions all over the place. we have a member neighbor
who is from massachusetts originally and has that strong newengland accent. its
pretty funny.
love you much,
Elder Morrison
