the stake president hit the send button less than an hour ago. the call should come in a couple of weeks. he could go anywhere–because this is my kid who can do anything.
guesses?

February 2nd, 2010 at 9:20 pm
oooh. I just got all nervous for him.
I’ll go exotic–Mongolia.
February 2nd, 2010 at 9:20 pm
Awesome picture.
February 2nd, 2010 at 9:31 pm
I’m thinking somewhere really warm and sunny. Like Mexico. Or maybe something more tropical. But definitely somewhere with lots of heat and sun!
February 2nd, 2010 at 9:35 pm
Chile.
February 2nd, 2010 at 9:39 pm
one of his best friends flew out to chile yesterday. he’d love that!
February 2nd, 2010 at 9:53 pm
Puerto Rico–because then Papo can take care of him for you!

Houston, TX, Vietnamese speaking

I’m with glittersmama… also the pic rocks.
…and maybe… Australia. He can hug the drugged Koalas for me.

Japan, definitely.
February 3rd, 2010 at 6:51 am
The Ukraine.
February 3rd, 2010 at 7:39 am
That photo… oh my, Dalene! Forever Z.
Australia, New Zealand
February 3rd, 2010 at 10:35 am
Micronesia.
February 3rd, 2010 at 11:02 am
I’m going to say…Alabama or Mississippi.
February 3rd, 2010 at 11:31 am
Can I just say he looks like his dad?
And to carry on the tradition, I’m going to say Finland or at least somewhere in Scandinavia.
February 3rd, 2010 at 11:48 am
Did you take that photo? It’s breathtaking!
Somewhere Mandarin speaking.
February 3rd, 2010 at 12:10 pm
EXCITEMENT!!
New Zealand!!!!
February 3rd, 2010 at 12:40 pm
So exciting! You must be one proud Mother Hen! How about my “homeland” Switzerland!?!
February 3rd, 2010 at 12:50 pm
Guam or the Marshall Islands
February 3rd, 2010 at 12:57 pm
I’m going to say Japan.
February 3rd, 2010 at 8:44 pm
San francisco Spanish speaking. Then he can live with us!!!!! Mamma–two missionaries???? sheesh. You guys are awesome.
February 3rd, 2010 at 9:22 pm
I wonder if it means anything that I am now the fourth vote for Australia/NZ?
February 3rd, 2010 at 9:43 pm
Iowa.
February 3rd, 2010 at 10:09 pm
Rick cracks me up. I can here his voice, his wry dry humor, everything. Love it.
February 3rd, 2010 at 10:41 pm
Maybe he’ll go to England too. My dad and his brother were mission companions in Holland and my father-in-law and his brother were companions in Peru.
February 3rd, 2010 at 11:24 pm
Birmingham,AL
Then we could keep an eye on him for you.
We love Zack and he will be a great missionary.
February 3rd, 2010 at 11:28 pm
I can’t believe a second missionary! I love Zach and I would love it if he went to Norway! But, I’m going to put my guess in Germany.
February 3rd, 2010 at 11:31 pm
I was going to say Mongolia too, but my second guess in Fiji. Then maybe North Carolina.
February 4th, 2010 at 8:01 am
Congratulations! I am so excited for him. I’m getting a Mediterranean vibe so… my guess is Athens, Greece.
February 4th, 2010 at 9:27 am
ooh, I can’t wait.
FINLAND
February 4th, 2010 at 10:46 am
Oh, Zack, I am thinking you would do good anywhere, but I think you will go to the Baltic States mission
February 4th, 2010 at 10:48 am
We are so proud of you by the way. I love your picture. Grandpa says he wants you to go to an Native America mission. Are you surprised?
February 4th, 2010 at 11:24 am
Russia. That’s the only place no one is really going to think of.
February 4th, 2010 at 11:27 am
I’m so excited for you guys! I’m no good at guessing these sorts of things, so I’ll just wait to hear!
February 4th, 2010 at 11:35 am
Chile. Or Bolivia. Or Denmark, Copenhagen. Or Pittsburgh.
February 4th, 2010 at 2:33 pm
Great pic! I’m thinking Brazil would be cool, if not, Spokane
, if not that, then somewhere in Asia.
February 5th, 2010 at 1:06 pm
Madagascar.
February 7th, 2010 at 6:24 pm
Gotta be like the ‘ole man & me — Finland, of course!
Seriously – does it matter – just go and work your self to pieces.
February 8th, 2010 at 5:40 pm
Brazil Manaus, I had a brother go there and literally he would cut a trail through the jungle with a machete. It was a great adventure. Seeing your son’s blonde head standing on the top of that hill in the wilderness reminded me of my blonde headed brother’s experience. As a sister that was great…as a mom I think I would be wishing for somewhere a little more civilized.
February 10th, 2010 at 12:56 am
I have been thinking about this a lot. I want to change my guess to Germany. I know he will go where the Lord wants him anyway.
February 11th, 2010 at 6:40 pm
CONGRATS ZACK. VERY PROUD OF YOU. I SAY FLORIDA-SPANISH SPEAKING- DES MOINE, IOWA OR AFRICA. BUT ALL IN ALL IT DOESN’T REALLY MATTER WHERE YOU GO ZACK. REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE SERVING AND HE WILL SEND YOU WHERE HE FEELS A YOUNG LIKE YOU CAN DO THE MOST GOOD TO SERVE HIM AND HIS CHILDREN. GOOD-LUCK ZACK
