Elder Skidmore (to the left of me in gray jacket) drove down from Houma, Louisiana to the Westbank to see me and a few other people when he served his mission here a few months ago and on Thursday-he goes back home to Mudlake, Idaho. As soon as I saw him, I wanted to go up to him and hug him tight, but he had a cast on his right arm, so I had to be gentle! I signed his cast too BTW!
We talked and caught up and talked about the good old days and he said that he wanted to take a ride in my car for old times sake, just one more time so we just drove around and had fun. I showed him my pictures from when I went to The Big Apple this January and he loved the pics. At 4:30ish-I had to leave him and go get my haircut because tomorrow I have an job interview and I wanted to look very professional and my absolute best!
When I was done, I met up with hm and a few other Elders at Wendy's and got some grub and talked there for about 20 minutes then we headed back to the Church and then he went on his own to see a family he worked with then I went someplace for an hour then we met back up at the Church and then I drove him to the Nike Factory Store and it was closed so then I drove him Downtown New Orleans and showed him the Hotel I could b working at if I get the job and we stopped by the Superdome and took pics and listened to music the entire time! It was so great! I will reflect on today for the rest of my life! I had a good time with him and I will miss him!
