Some things stay the same

We headed down to the BIG city of New York early this morning. Took the Elders with us for P-day. Traffic wasn't too bad considering we were headed into the city at rush hour. Stopped by the Bishop's Store house to drop of some mail to the Formans, same old Bronx. CRAZY drivers! Headed down to Manhattan and found our way to the New York Donut Plant, remember the huge square donuts, Yum! Then we fought our way thru CRAZY traffic to the temple and dropped off the Elders. We then went to Doug's Dr. appt. This is the reason we get to go down to the city once a month. After getting Doug's prescription we headed back to the temple and went in and said hello to several people, we used to serve on Fridays, it was fun to see people we haven't seen since our day was changed to Thursdays. After going thru more CRAZY traffic we made it to Crepes on Columbus and then back to the Bronx to get prescriptions filled. It took us about an hour to go about 13 miles in the CRAZY traffic. Kmart has kept Doug's meds in stock so we have to go there to get them filled. Of course you can't go to the Bronx with a new Elder without taking him to CROSS BRONX PIZZA. (Okay so we just came from eating, but there is always room for CBP. ) It was a fun fast trip, the Elders were fun to have with us, and there is one thing about it; some places remain the same. And we are glad to get back to the cool breeze, green trees and fresh night air.
