How is my favorite missionary doing this fine day?
Good.
How was your week in your new area?
Great!
Now you are in Wilcox - correct? The map you sent was for St. David so I was a bit confused. I just read your email wrong.
Yes, Wilcox is in St. David.
So this transfer, is it going well & how far did you have to travel?
So far this transfer is going great. It was almost an hour drive if I can remember right.
Did you get any packages this past week? I sent your CHRISTMAS package & a small package with your songs. Sorry I took so long on the music. Enjoy them!
Nope, it takes forever for packages to get from the mission office to us; and now that I am even further away it will take longer then a week for packages.
So this week what have you been doing?
Getting to know the new area.
Anything fun/exciting/boring/difficult/strange?
Nope just that I have to get use to waving to people. In Tucson everyone hates everyone so nobody waves even if you do. But now that I am in a small city people are actually nice.
What is your new area like?
Small, little city.
What is your new comp like? & Where is he from?
He has been out twenty months and is from Syracuse Ut.
Do you get along with him ok?
Yup!
Well that was pretty much what I was going to say in this email... Even got me to remember some things that I had forgotten about. Now I really cannot think of anything to say.
I am liking my new area and things have been good. And I brought my camera today so I got to get the pick uploaded.
Love you all!
Love
Elder Barlocker II

An email I received from a missionary's mom in Jaren's new area:
Kim, I asked Elder Mizera if he knew your son and this is what he said in his letter today.
"Elder Barlocker is in one of our districts. I was there when he was "born", too. He's pretty cool. He's really into magic (rabbit out of a hat/card trick kind). You can tell his mom from me that he's an awesome missionary. My companion is actually the trainer of his trainer. ie his grandpa;)"
Makes you feel a whole lot better knowing he is being looked after! ;)
