Brian is now safely in Washington. He has landed in Vancouver (which is right next to Portland, OR). Here is his address:
Elder Brian Bowler
1108 NW Sluman Rd.
Vancouver, WA 98665
You can always send letters or packages to the mission home. Brian is doing much better - not so homesick anymore. He has a great companion who he says is twice his size (well, isn't everyone?). His name is Elder Anderson and he is from Delta, UT. He said that he could use washable ties for Christmas seeing as his are getting all wet. Brian also said that he would love to find out that there were some chronic letter writers in the family. :0)
