Dear family,
I haven't sent a physical letter to you in a while, so I decided to send one now! I love hearing about what's going on at home in your letters and emails, and I hope my communications home make you happy. I miss Arizona winter weather, and I know I will a lot more in the near future. It should start snowing at the end of the month here, which I am both excited and not for. I will get pictures.
Speaking of pictures, if there are specific ones you want of things here in New York City (Manhattan and Bronx, that is). I can't guarantee I will get them soon, but I will try my best.
I eat a lot of NY style pizza, averaging about six slices a week. That is because we usually go for it twice a week, and I typically get three each time. At a dollar a slice, pizza is definitely a staple to a missionary's diet. And, it never gets old!
Well, that's about all I can think of right now. See my emails for additional stuff about my mission and about New York. Also see (picture below) for a basic diagram of the church building on 65th Street. It's the Manhattan Temple, Family History Center, Distribution Center, and a church building all in one!
-- the temple part has its own elevator that passes the main church building part
-- there is another elevator that does the non-temple parts
-- on Sundays, certain doors inside and outside the temple lobby are opened and closed so that the elevator can be used for church, so both elevators are running. However, it can't go up into the temple when that happens
Hope you are still enjoying life in Arizona. I'll be back before you know it.
Love,
Elder Ryan Turner
