Dear Family,
Well this week was a pretty exciting week. We spent most of all Monday through Wednesday going on meetings and traveling. Thursday through Saturday we spent doing just regular stuff. One couple we met this week were pretty awesome. We got to their house and when we walked in the door, it was like walking in museum. After talking for a few minutes his wife got up to get us some ice cream. He showed us around his house pointing out the several neat things that he has. Much of his displays were chess sets and then we got to one set, when he opened up the case, turned the light on and told us that this was the best one he had. He said it was worth a measly 5 million dollars!? I had never seen something so expensive before. I was shocked. He showed us the books he had written and explained what he had done to get where he was at today. He talked about meeting Mitt Romney, George Bush, Collin Powel, and just his various other friends haha. His wife was a life long member and he had just joined the church about 6 years ago. He is about 90 years old and has Alzheimer's and so he can't come to church anymore, but wow, he was definitely the richest person I have ever met. That was definitely the most interesting thing about my week! Hope yall had a good time as well!
Love Elder Smith
