  We awoke to the power on, thank goodness.  We don’t want all our stuff in the freezer unthawing!!  Rick headed out early to go woodcutting with the Elders Quorum President.  He got home around noon after having helped get a full load of wood for him to sell during the holidays and saved him trailer rental to boot.  After grocery shopping was done, we took a journey to the licensing place to find out what all is needed to change ownership of the trailer.  Everyone in government places seem to be real testy!!  Not to us, but other people.  We are always treated with courtesy and respect. We waited for the agent to get back from an extended lunch break (2:15) when the station supervisor came out, told us that he knew we had been waiting for her awhile but he was going to talk with her first. We don’t understand Afrikaans but by the sounds of the conversation, the supervisor was encouraging her to return earlier from lunch next time. Just another adventure in the life of a South Africa Missionary!!
