Elder Dayton Talbot: Alaska Anchorage Mission 2017-2019

This week was super great, but I forgot to add something about last week at zone conference. We were told by the mission president that we will be getting Facebook in our mission. That's all they told us and so I'll let you know more details in 2 weeks when we go back to anchorage. The weeks out here keep flying by, it's always nice to start the week out fishing and so we were out fishing at monashka for the day. We were only there 4 hours because we caught our limit of 2 silvers each. The rest of the day we cut them up like usual and a member lets us vacuum seal all of our fish to preserve it. My companion is going to send home about 50 pounds of silver salmon. He said it's a little pricy to send since it has to be shipped frozen. But let me know if you think it would be fun and I can send some your way if you request. It might take a while to collect a lot but I can try haha. And to answer your question about mill bay, it's basically just an ocean. So you can...

Hello to all back in the lower 48!   ;) This week was pretty great. On Monday we went fishing all day...you asked a couple questions about fishing and so will answer them. It doesn’t take that long to reel them in, but they do get bigger then the silver that I caught. The pinks that we were catching were pretty easy and didn’t fight but they are dying off and the silvers are starting to run. yeah I got pretty lucky on where I get to fish and my companion likes it even more than me. It’s fun, its literally like in our back yard. Its like a 5-10 minute drive. And thanks for sending me a package, I can’t wait to get it. I love receiving stuff in the mail! our ward mission leaders name is brother mccmullin. He hasn’t done much help with the work.  He rarely responds to our texts. We have only met with him a couple of times, it was strange because he would sit on a huge bean bag and we didn’t even have an opening or closing prayer. My comp tells me that he has had much bet...
