It's been years since they ventured into my part of the woods but I opened the door to find three Mormonettes. The guys go in pairs but apparently they think they need three for the girls. Evanston Wyoming has a rather nice historical museum. Like most of the railroad towns the Chinese played a large part. I called an exhibit to the attention of a Chinese woman that I thought might interest her. We got to talking and eventually went out to a picnic table. She asked if I knew anything about my ancestry, which I took to be a Chinese thing. Nope, she was a Mormon and they're big on genealogy so they can retroactively baptize their ancestors. She was headed to Salt Lake as was I and she invited me to attend a service with her. She was cute, but I passed.
