I finally went to Texas!

I'm glad to be here in Texas! Now I just need to understand what people are saying. It really depends on the person. Sometimes I can understand 80% sometimes I can't understand a word. Maybe it depends on what country they're from... It's been a little surreal actually being on a mission (sometimes it feels like I'm just following the missionaries around but then I realize there's only one other missionary...) but it also feels so right. I'm excited!

 

There's also a critical question to answer: Is everything really bigger in Texas?

 

Yes and no. I guess it really depends. In the hispanic culture, I haven't seen that as much, but with the white people yes. A lot of the houses are large, the trucks are large, the roads are large... It's already gotten to the point where I like roaming trailer parks and "ghetto" apartments where the hispanic people live. I get the feeling all the white people have already heard about us "mormons" in their churches (one of which we call the "great and spacious building because it's literally as big as a department store) but the hispanic people are almost always open to listening.
