"Anyone want to send me stamps???"

Dear family and friends,
Happy labor day! where we celebrate working by not working! So i want to share an experience that i had not too long ago i hope i haven't shared it before. So we came out of a lesson and we were late to correlation meeting with the other WML (i think i did share this) and i saw a lady on the other side of the street doing yard work. i knew i should talk with her but i was late and the meeting would be ending in 30 minutes. I had a guilty feeling because i was ignoring the spirit so i went over there and we talked about church and families and about her neighbor who was trying to get active and into the temple. She said we could come back in two weeks and share our message. well we went back and we have a lesson set up for the 21st. its a long ways out but i could have missed it had i thought talking about missionary work was more important than actually doing missionary work.
So we went mountain biking last monday! it was legit! im not very good but i really enjoyed it. only fell once. and it wasnt a bad fall. But i had a  good time zooming down the mountain side taking hard turns and getting air off jumps.
The other day we had a lesson with a family there name was story... very interesting family because hes a member less active, she was a convert but then asked to have her named removed. we went in to teach her and she was just looking to bible bash. and im still a little hot headed, but then i remembered my training and i asked if she was willing to put all that aside and read the BOM and find out if it is true. She said no. but Since the WML set up each lesson we are still going back...??? don't know why. But the husband the Less active who totally believes its all true was fighting against us as well...??? don't get it.
We are teaching scott 3 times a week  now. but the sisters can now come here to south jordan to teach so now we dont have to go down there every time. hes is learning soo much and progressing much faster than i thought he would. 
And i was just thinking are there pictures of my baptism??? it might be good if i had that. Im doing really well just pluggin along doing my district leader stuff and training elder heath. Oh im almost out of stamps. anyone want to send me stamps???
Take care everyone love you Elder Salmon
