Remember the big guy.  I got my picture taken with him today.  I saw his family last week at the clinic but he couldn't come.  I was worried he may not fit in my chair.  His name is Edwin Mulitalo.  He was an offensive guard for the Baltimore Ravens and played for them when they won the Superbowl in 2000.  He's a great guy.  He's in the young men's presidency in our ward.

Our bishop, Bishop Pauga isn't much smaller.  He's a wonderful bishop.  Very impressive man.

I picked up our new dentist, Dr. Clyde Larsen, like walking in the temple from the airport yesterday with his daughter and sister-in-law and gave them the cook's tour of the island. We went to church this morning then after a nice father's day dinner we took an afternoon drive to Sauniatu.  When David O. Mckay gave this village an apostolic blessing he said in his prayer that this place was one of the first temples.  It feels like it.  The Larsen's compared it to walking thru Adam-ondi-Ahman

The fence posts even grow here.
This is a tree fern.  I took this one for Todd.
Me Dr. Larsen and Dr. Mangum
Church is out.  Never climbed a tree in a lava lava before.
 This is the rugby team from the church school in Savaii.  They were ranked number two.  Number one is the Church College.  They played the championship game yesterday and our boys from the Church College won.  They are both LDS schools so it was pretty neat.
