We went to find some of the people that David really wanted to see. It was quite the opportunity to see some of Vermont, off the beaten path.
Our first stop was to find the fellow that David used to milk cows for as part of the service he was required to do each week.. He was coming out of his driveway in his tractor as we were arriving so he stopped it right where he was.
David had a nice visit with him and left with a milking stool. (Let’s just say it was super smelly and was not cleaned up at all.)
Next we headed to Vermont Technical College. The fellow that was ward mission leader when David was in the area is the cross country coach. So we stopped in for a visit and David played a little basketball (while his old parents rested and watched!)
David had us drive by his apartment. They lived towards the back of the building.
From there, we headed to a couple’s home. They were baptized shortly after David arrived on his mission. They had invited us for dinner.
Another thing David had done for his service hours was to chop wood. While this is not the exact wood he chopped, this is where it was stored.
We found out why David loved Vermont and the people he interacted with. What a wonderful place to serve!
