# 63 The Volcano is Spewing, Full Eruption Expected Next Week

We had another week of lots to do and like always a good variety.  You cannot get bored on this mission.  If you do not like what you are assigned to do that day, be assured you are going to be assigned something else the next day.  We served in the office, Visitor's Center, Outfitting, Handcart Parking and Trek Center and we also were assigned to clean the barn (our meeting and eating room).  Elder Smart lead the music at Correlation on Tuesday and on Thursday, at Correlation, we were assigned to give the thought from Preach My Gospel and read part of the Pioneer story from our site guide .

Monday we spent most of the day in the office and then went up to handcart parking to greet and help the two handcart groups trekking that day. This made for a 13 hour day.  We dropped when we got home and went right to bed!

Elder Smart still finds time to help other missionaries with their Family History.

Next week the biggest trek week of this season is happening.  We will be lucky to take time to eat, or sleep.  Sister Smart is scheduled to lead Hickories Ward from Idaho on an 8 mile trek including a river crossing and woman's pull up the hill.  The temperature is predicted to be 90% +.  We'll see if she comes out alive. Stay tuned to be informed of her mental and physical state next week.

A great experience here!!  We are truly happy we have been able to serve.

We send our love and wish Matthew Stagg, Velynn, Keslee and Lilian happy birthday this week.

Grandpa and Grandma Smart, Dad and Mom, Paul and Annie, Elder and Sister Smart
