Weather Monster

Friday and Saturday of this week it literally poured sheets of water from the sky. The wind blew it side ways so the umbrellas were of no value. I really have empathy for the younger missionaries who are out in all kinds of weather. It would be hard to appear at someones front door there to share a message while you are dripping wet and shaking cold. They are troopers, my hat is off to them. The work rolls forward continually. May they all be blessed with warm hearts, hands and feet.

We were out in it for about 2 minutes and got really wet. All we had to do is step out of our car, put out our umbrella and walk a couple of blocks. Hurray!!!! At last we are able to pick up the keys to the last apartment we have been jumping thru hoops to get for 4 Elders right down on 14th Street. And then we stepped out side, umbrella up for 2 more minutes and into our car that warmed quickly as we drove the entire length of Manhattan. We truly have nothing to complain about as Doug hit every green light, about 100 blocks worth of green lights as we drove north back to "Da Bronx." (That probably will never happen again.)
