          We invited Elder and Sister Bassett to go to lunch with us down town.  They are the only other residents staying in the building and have not been out of town during the temple closing.  There is a new Wendy’s near the airport, which is also near La Colonia, and that was our choice.   The food was great and it wasn’t crowded.  We had no schedule and didn’t have to hurry so we wandered through the mall afterward and enjoyed the Christmas decorations that are going up everywhere.  Our last stop was for a few groceries and then we ventured into the rain to hail a taxi. 

          Studying Spanish is always hard in that it’s difficult to choose a focus.  There is so much to learn that it is mind boggling.  My approach is rather random even though I have tried to be organized.   Anyway, good study happened but being able to communicate is still “way out there some place”!

          We did our walking, of course; I played the piano at the church; and Glade played his new guitar a little.  It is making his fingers so sore that he can’t stay with it very long right now.  It will take a little time, but his calluses will come back!
