And the most recent:

Hey guys, I dont have much time, because the ccomputers here are terrible. Ive just spent all of my time making a cd of all of my pictures, only to find out that you cant save to cds on this computer, and its too slow to e-mail, so sorry, you dont get a cd, or letters until i can figure something else out. Again, I need stamps so that I can send pouch mail.Again, I need stamps so that I can send pouch mail.Again, I need stamps so that I can send pouch mail. Do you get the message?
mom, to answer your questions, most of the things that we buy are from street stands, because they dont have grocery stores here. I have been sick twice since Ive been here, but nothing that was too bad, I still went out prosylyting all day, so im fine. You can buy anything you want in Ghana (as long as you have money, which I dont). Mostly we eat rice, noodles, bread and eggs. i havent seen any really big farms yet, just mainly small family gardens, but we havent been out to the real farms so I couldnt tell you on that one. im doing great, and loving it over here. Its really hot and humid, and I dont think that Ill  ever adjust to the temp. I put on sun screan, but I just sweat it off in about 30 seconds. Needless to say I look like a big red tomato. THE CANDY IS NOT FOR THE KIDS, ITS FOR ME!!!! sorry, but if I give anything to the kids, they will keep following me and asking for things for the rest of the time im on my mission. that is not a joke either. probably dont send chocolate, it will melt. for Chris and Cam, I havent seen any snakes, but there was and alagator at the mtc that the guard killed in the parking lot and took home for dinner, and I got to hold it and take a picture. it was really neat. Ive got to go, love you all.
Love Elder Russell
P.S. thats really cool about allen emch, tell him I said congrats.
