Then we jumped in the car for another 5 hour car ride back home and we stopped in Grand Island and we got our stuff and while we were waiting in the parking lot we ended up catching a rabbit
the best part about it was watching everyone run away from the nasty little guy and my Zone Leaders wouldn't let be bring him home with me so i gave him to the Grand Island Elders to keep for me.
Wed- we decide to take president Weston's challenge and went to Grant to build faith by Tracting so we did we got there set off and got chased by a dog talked to a lady who was not to interested knocked a few houses then we were walking down the road and saw a lady spraying her Flowers and a guy who was filling buckets with grass and not wanting to get sprayed with water we decided to try the guy filling buckets well the Lady with the Hose yelled at us to come here so we walked over and she sprayed us a surprise she was baptized in South America and we had a good talk with her and she told us to come back and teach her Fiance then we came home happy.

We went to see Jake and found that had talked to a guy about us coming out and Helping him with a branding on saturday.
Fri- we went out to Keystone to help Kat she brought down a truck load of stuff and a dog kennel we moved for her then we talked to Bob to see if he was still needing our help he did but was sick that day so we decided to wait till later when he was feeling better.
Sat- We went to Aurthor Which is in the Sand Hills found the Ranch we were looking for and Met Ryan and Bob Cone then headed out to the area we would be branding in which was a fun drive through some off road but they rounded up the cows and we started separating Cows and Calves then went to work wrestling Calfs which was fun the weather was super nice not to hot but just right after we got finished with the first group is when the problems started they were rounding up the second group when they started having runaways and it was cool to watch them rope or try to but they ended up getting them all done and caught. When it was all said and done we did about 280 calves then we all went back to the house ate like Kings and moved a shout for a guy then headed home.

Well this week was good I got to Go to my favorite little big town called Lexington or AKA Mexington.
Well Monday we drove to Lex and when we got there the AP's had already beaten us its funny how they always seem to be on time or early every other time than on transfer day so it was a quick good by from there. Where i would be staying with Elder Edwards
Tue- First we went to a less actives home to help move some scrap wood form the ramp they took out in the front of the house because i have a truck so we did that then we took some other junk over to the dump and then went out to Johnson Lake to try and visit some of the Investigators and Less Actives that were there so we went out and we got to see a couple but not everyone was home or able to have us stay we did see this crazy thing were a woman was living in a garbage can to get away from her kids which is sad and crazy and weird. but it was not to bad.
Wed- Was district meeting which was in away strange not having to one leave so early and not having to travel out of town for the meeting but i was lucky enough to get to give a training on how we can make our message more meaningful my centering our message on Familys and it went very well. The other training was on Researching our Ancestors then they asked everyone to share their family stories they were supose to memories for Zone Training this week.
Thur- We had Calls coming from President Weston to tell us who our comps would be and if we were training well Elder Edwards got a call but i did not get one so we went out to Gothemburg to help Bro. Sanders out on his ranch which was fun we ran some Electric fence and some Barbed wire and got rid of some unwanted trees for him. then when we got home from that one we went back to eh family who we moved the wood for to move some sand and found out they wanted us to take out there whole front yard and move the sand to get dirt which is silly cause its is super good soil already so it didnt work out for us but we got fishing licence so fish the pond they live by and Elder Edwards caught a good size Large mouth bass which was fun.
Fri- we got a call saying we had to meet the transfer van in Kearny so we jumped in the truck and tried to find the place they were hiding at which was a big apple easy to see if it wasn't behind the other stores and on the front of the building but i found it and got my comp Elder Kunzler who is form Northern Utah from a ranch out there his folks run so this is home and headed home stopped and ate with the Branch Misson Leader then came home and unpacked.
Sat/Sun- we went around visiting people so Elder Kunzler could get familiarized with the area and people. Went to church didnt have to tell his stories to many times over again but had a good day Anna and Alaina both bailed on us Alaina's boy friends daughter was sick and Anna slep in which should not have happened due to i set an alarm for her which woke her up the last two weeks she didnt come so oh well will keep working on them both well hope you all have a wonderful week love Elder Lott.

Wed- We had to go to North Platte for District Meeting even though we were not sure we would be able to make it due to a mileage cut in the middle of the month but we made it with a few to spare for 1 day which was 50. where we learn about using our member more in our areas and also using Ward/Branch Correlation meetings. Went and had lunch together then we all went our separate ways. we went to dinner with bro. Teter and then went with him to help him with his Home teaching we saw Sister Bates and the Brawley's then we stopped by Greg for a very lengthy visit with him.
Thur- Started off like every other day until a knock on our door brought TROUBLE to us it was Christina John Morris Ex- girlfriend she told us he was going nuts and called the cops on her for braking into his apartment and tried to lay hands on her the day before and so we told her we would talk to him. We got a call from him a while later telling us he was going to Colorado for the weekend to visit his family and that his son was still not doing well he had to be Revived again this week and he was not doing well at all but it was a good idea for him to visit family to get him out of town for a while to cool off but said he would go to church while he was there. that's where he was Baptized too also stopped and talked to Anna for a while too.
Fri- we went into the Saddle shop to see if we would help Jake with anything when we got there his Mom was there but not him she told us that his Mother in law had passed away the day before and they were out taking care of things with that but i helped his mom fix a breast collar put a snap on for a guy on his gun case and Jake gave us the number of a guy who was branding some Cows on saturday encase we needed something to do asked jake if he had heard from Greg recently cause he wasn't answering his phone but when we were there he called and we left to go see him so we talked he apparently had to go take care of some business so thats why he was gone for so long.
Sat- We went to the Jeffers to help them Build a Patio next to there Fire Ring which was quite the chore but we had a good time with it i worked on cleaning bricks to lay then we went to go get Sand from the Lake then we put a layer of sand down and started to lay bricks then found out we would have to lay North to South to get them to fit like he wanted but we used every last brick he had to get it all done but get it done after that we get cleaned up and went to Anna's for dinner she gave us a meat loaf to take home then we went to see Alaina Wright a less active she told us she would come to church with her cousin who was there with her then we went and tried Vince a referral we had gotten he answered this time after 5 minutes on the porch he invited us in we taught the Restoration as best we could with how he was asking his questions which was what we were trying to tell him so we left him with the pamphlet and told asked him to read over it with his wife and to give us a call if he had any questions or needed anything then left with a prayer but it was good.
Sun- we got a call from Alaina W she would not be coming to church again 3 weeks now greg bailed on us and we got to church i was standing at the door opening it for members as they showed up and the Magees came again 2 weeks in a row so the up side was we did have a less active come anyways which was good came home we tried a few Less actives talked to Greg he thinks he wants to move to Billings to work for Ben Swanky a saddle maker rather than working for Jake Vanhorn here dont get him some times but oh well i just hope he makes up his mind and does it rather than fly by night.

April 21, 2014
Here is our crazy sweet week
Tue- We had the zone leaders come out for a visit i thought it was funny when they called us to get directions when they were lost in a one horse town but we got them squared away. So we went out to kat's so we could clean out her extra bed room which was a mess so we cleaned out most of it and took way to much junk out to storage which is filled to the max but did anyways. after that we went got lunch and was going to head to Hersey and decided we should just go to North Platte that night rather than coming back to Ogallala and then Heading out in the morning so we grabbed our stuff and went to Hershey to help Bro. McConnell out we got there and got two chain saws and the backhoe out and headed out to where the cows were at and we gathered fallen branches to put on a wind break he was building for the cows then we started to cut into pieces a few trees that had fallen down loaded them up and cut down a ton of dead ceder trees. after that we nocked a few trees over and i got put in the bucket and cut a few large limbs off a tree over a caving area then we did a few more downed trees and were finished for the night so we headed to north platte for the night.
Wed- was quite exciting as for district meeting elder Postma trained first and then it was Elder Lott's turn to train for the first time in 6 months i trained on How the book of Mormon is a catylist to conversion. which went very well i thought but after that we went to lunch got pizza and went to the jail to see Brian Brawley who they sent back to Ogallala so we headed home for the day.
Thur- We went to the jail and saw Brian which was good to see him again we got him his fathers Phone number and stuff after we got done visiting with him we went to see Jake Vanhorn who owns the saddle shop we stopped to see if he needed any help but he was working on a pair of spurs strapps and we talked for a while seeing how he was doing and after that called Greg Moore he told us he was going to be going to Rehab in Monday so we went to see the Brawleys and told them how Brian was doing and things. After we went to Dennys who see kat she asked us to come by so we went and she told us that Pam a lady she works with needed a couple of pens made for her mairs who will be foling soon so we gave her our number and went home. then we got a call from Christina who told us John needed us to come over and see then ASAP so we rushed over he told us that his youngest son had colapsed and that he had died but they did revive him and that he was not doing well and they don't know if he is going to make it so the Holt's came over and he helped us give him a blessing (John) his son is with a foster parents but it was a ruff time for him.
Friday- we thought that pam was going to call us cause thats what we were told but we never did get a calls so went out and we went by the Jeffers and they told us they were going to be staining their deck the next day and so i asked them when they wanted us to be there to help them cause they needed some help with it so they told us 10 and we left and saw Alaina Wright to see if her and Cindy were planning on coming to church this weekend they told us yes and we told them when to expect their ride the we tried the burnsides but they were taking there truck to the shop top get worked on so we went to see the MaGee's we had a good talk with them they asked us to water their garden while they are away and if we could help there friend with moving and stuff then came home.
sat- we went to the Jeffers and they Fed us breakfast before we started working and then we jumped to it and we got it done in by 3:30 and they gave us our easter baskets she made for us and we went home to get cleaned up and ready for the rest of our day we went to see Anna and she told us she would come to church with us as well we also saw greg he said he wanted to go to church before he took off to rehab so we went to see bro. Teter and told him the plan for Sun and went home.
