Phew I have done a lot of blogging, you should all be very proud of me. The best story is the 4th one down. :) But here is a little story to get you started. Totally shows that the Lord is looking out for forgetful missionaries like Elder Call! (This is after he already lost/broke his other camera and asked us for a new one for his birthday).
On our way back from Talihina, we had a REALLY pretty view of the rolling hills, so we stopped to take some pictures! Well... i ended up setting my camera on the back of the car, on the trunk in between the bike rack, and the back window. So, we're taking picures with Elder Borrowman's camera, and then we get on heading home, and Elder Borrowman says, "did we leave anything on the car?" And i told him we didn't and we kept on driving.
Well, on our way home, we pass through these little towns, Hartshorne, and Haileyville. At the end of Hartshorne is this billboard that i'd never noticed, and i saw it as we passed. I laughed and said that we needed to turn around and get a picture of that billboard. I kinda felt guilty for doing so, but we got out and as i reached for my camera, i realized i'd left it on the back of the car, and that it probably fell off, and was broken in a hundred pieces. So, i said, "goodbye camera," to the wind, knowing i'd never see many of those pictures again, and happy i have some of them as hard copies. Well, Elder Borrowman positions himself to take a picture, when i hear "no way!" And lo and behold, my bike had caught the camera cord, that i had tied around the case so they'd never be sepearated. The camera was intact, and wholly not lost and broken into a hundred pieces! Well, needless to say, it was a tender mercy from the Lord, for which i am really grateful.
