Just when we think Spring is around the corner, it snows again.
The Hirosaki Branch is a big branch with lots of children and youth. (by lots, I mean 3-4 children and 3-4 High School students.) Many of the Branches don't have any children so it was nice to see the enthusiasm of youth. Many baptisms happen here because of the two sister missionaries serving here. Sis Maki front row in white sweater) is one of the very best missionaries in the mission. She is loving and kind and always smiling but absolutely relentless when it comes to encouraging investigators. She doesn't give up easily.

This gal is from Pocatello, Idaho and is teaching English in Hirosaki. It was fun to talk to someone from home.
The next day we were in Aomori with the Elders. They wanted to take us to this fish market where you could buy any piece of fish you wanted (sashimi) with a bowl of rice. The men all loved it. I found a piece of fried shrimp and was happy with that. Elders Taylor, Ohira, Me, Gary, Watanabe and Squire.
