pineapple upside down cake do you want some

Joseph's most recent letter (written 12/31/12)

Hey family
               Sounds like your week has gone well and you have all been busy and are ready to go back to school. Nathaniel sorry i didn't do a quote from pirates but this one fits my story. 

              After I talked to you on Christmas we went to have lunch at the church. For dessert we had pineapple upside down cake it was really good. Then we went to a members house and were hanging out when it started snowing. The district leaders called and said get to a safe place and we were like OK we are safe. Then about an hour later the zone leaders called and told us to go home. We left and got about two thirds the way home when we decided the snow was so bad and there were too many trees down we couldn't drive any farther. We then preceded to park the car in a safe place and walk home. When we got home we had no power because the trees had fallen on the power lines. We stayed over at our neighbors house that night. The next day we had a conference call and the president told us to not go driving around. When it stopped snowing we went outside and shoveled the neighbors and our sidewalks and drive way. We then got a ride to the church and shoveled the church's side walk. Thursday we were allowed to go out and visit people. We had dinner with the Lund's (you nds). That is the lady that called you mom she used to work for Elder Nelson of the quorum of the twelve. Friday we finally got power back and were able to resume normal missionary work. Sunday I met a guy by the name of Jim Griffin who says he knows grandpa.

             A few other things, Kent, the car we drive is a Chevy Malibu. Mom will you send be the cord for my camera the computers here don't have SD slots only USB. 
                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                         Love Elder Talbert
