Warrenton Oregon

Got this email from Elder Donaldson today. A man of few words!

I dont have a computer so i can't make it where you can't see the other emails. SoTuesday morning i left the mtc at 350 am and got on the bus to the airport. At the airport there was this awesome guy Nate from BYU that bought us breakfast then we got on the plane to Portland! It was like a 2 hour flight we arrived at the Portland airport at like 930 and got off the plane to meet the missionaries going home! They were so nice and helpful then we met President and Sister McAteer (macateer) they're so awesome. I spent the first day tracting with 6'7 Elder Lucuer (lusweer) on bikes it was fun then we had dinner and stayed at the mission home. In the morning was transfers where i met my dad Elder Hofmann I'm in Warrenton Oregon right on the coast. It's so beautiful here and i love it already
