We had transfers this week and Elder Soule and Elder Durkin have moved. Elder Pimentel has come to Barrow as his first assignment since being in the MTC in Chorley. He appears to be a wonderful missionary with a strong testimony. Elder Tomita will be his trainer. His stake president was President Jacobsen's brother back in Fremont, California.
Joan, Larry's sister arrived also this week and we took a day trip and visited Muncaster Castle which is one of the most haunted castles in England. There were beautiful gardens and an amazing castle. The same family has lived there since around 1050AD and we saw the Lady of the castle on our way out of the grounds. After the castle we went on the La'al Ratty, a small gauge railroad that travels up into the Eskdale Valley to Dalegarth for Boot (they have interesting names for places). The scenery was amazing and we got close enough to the wildlife to reach out and touch them; it was quite an adventure. The picture with the stream is where we exited the railway. Words cannot describe the beauty we beheld this day.
