West Memphis is in Arkansas?

Hey family,
                  This week has been exciting. So like I said in the last email I got a call on Monday saying I was going to be transferred. Well that morning we went to the temple to say goodbye to Elder Staib. After we emailed, I packed and we played some games. On Tuesday I packed some more and went to go say goodbye to people. We went to the Seamen's and they gave me a cool blanket. Wednesday we went to a lady named Quantrice's.Sshe is one of the sisters' investigators. We did a baptism interview for her. After, we went to transfers. We hung out at the church till 3 when the people from Little Rock came and we could start transfer meeting. Transfers are supposed to start at 2 but the traffic was bad. Then transfers happened and I got transferred to Marion, AR. My companion is Elder Oveson. He is from Murray, UT and has been out about 9 months. Marion is a small town right above West Memphis. There are Elders in West Memphis so they came over and helped us set up and gave us some people we could go see. On Friday and Saturday we went around and visited a bunch of people. We went to see all the people Elder Anderson gave us as well as some members in Marion. The West Memphis Elders are Elder Anderson and Elder North. We see them about everyday usually at dinner appointments. On Sunday, we had fast and testimony meeting. It was good. There is a branch here and the members seem really cool. Then that evening we went and saw one of the other elders' recent converts named the Teeters. They are really cool family.
       
              That's about it for my week. It was exciting and fun. It sounds like y'all have had a great fall break. Have a great week this week.
          Love Elder Talbert
