Hey Mom,
Yesterday, I got the CDs you sent. I still haven't had the chance to listen to them because I don't have a CD player but hopefully I’ll find a member that has a laptop that I can use to put it on my iPod. I'm way excited to listen to the CDs though! Thank you so much for sending those to me!
So you asked me if I like the fruit here in Thailand. Well yes I do! There is a lot of fruit here that they don't have in America. Soooo much! Like Jackfruit, that’s way good, rose apples, Sakia, there is a lot! The pineapple here is really good too. Also Guavas are amazing. I like it all.
For the service project last week we worked on building a Cemetery that President Dodge is funding. At least I think he is funding it. It’s the only Cemetery in Thailand. Usually when somebody dies, they just cremate the body, they don't bury them. So we worked on putting up a fence around the cemetery and that took pretty much the whole time. That was all we had time to do.
I love you Mom, Thanks for the email! I still haven't gotten the shirts. I should be getting those in 2 weeks when we have Moves Meeting.

Steve
