Hi everyone. This is Mom writing from our hotel room in Great Falls. We dropped Steve off two days ago and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. We parked across the street first and walked over to take pictures by the MTC sign then headed back to the car for hugs & goodbyes. Then we put our parking pass in the window and pulled into the MTC parking lot. We were directed to a spot along the curb where a host missionary met us and helped get Steve's luggage out. He asked Steve if he had a cell phone or car keys, where he was from and where he was called to. We gave him one last hug, said goodbye and he was gone. It was that simple and took about two minutes. Then we drove off. I did really well and didn't even hardly cry. I think Mal didn't want to come because she would have cried more than me.

We've had a relaxing stay in Great Falls, spent too much money and will head home tomorrow. For any of you who may wish to get a letter off to Steve quick before he leaves the MTC here is his address: Elder Steven Robert Scott
