A First for Everything

Yesterday (Sunday) was our first meeting and Robbie and I's first time going out in service here. It was pretty cool, the meeting was pretty normal, except for the fact that it was 180 degrees. They have a bunch of windows they keep open and about a dozen fans running, but theres no A/C in the hall. The brother who gave the talk was from the spanish group (and he wore a Bow Tie!). Theres only 1 English congregation, a Spanish group and a French group, so they have to use alot of the same brothers for Sunday talks. We made plans to join a local brother at 3 for service. For those of you in Simi, the terrirory we did reminded me very much of Ditch Road. Extremely steep driveways, what little pavement there is is really worn and bumpy. For me it was kind of normal, but you have to remember that robbie (who was driving) and josh come from Florida, where the highest point in the whole state is the landfill, everything else is about 6 feet above sea level. So needless to say it was a new driving experience for the 2 of them. We worked for about an hour and a half. Then we came back home, we tried to go kayaking, but I gave up cause it was to windy and choppy. We'll try another day.

Here is a pic of the Kingdom Hall, Ill get more pix of the inside
