Well this week I bout drove the wheels off that Corolla.
Just kidding it wasn't bad but we did put the kilometers on. First we drove 2 hour round trip to shep for my comp to get an ultrasound for his shoulder. This Thursday to Saturday that was the only major event cause my comp is still "recovering" 
.
Sunday was a interesting Sunday... we went to the swan hill branch, the other area we cover. That was a hour and 45 minute drive one way. I said the opening prayer, sacrement, and also gave a 20 minute talk, and 6 members were there. Hahah it was interesting but a good experience. After just the 1 hour of church we went to visit a member in hospital ( no I didn't pass out this time I had sufficient food
).
Monday we drove to district council (1 hour) and from there I drove to Wangaratta (hour:30) to go on exchanges with Elder Broczek. We did some service that evening. The next day we visited some of their old people being taught and one appointment went awesome!!! This lady really opened up like she never has before apparently. So that was a miracle in itself. After some more finding my comp met us in Wang and we made the 2 hour and some drive back home.
Just for a reference my area that I cover end to end takes almost 5 hours driving on highways. About the length of utah... which includes 2 branches with 20 or so active members combined. And it's been that way for 25+ years... So yes it's very hard work here just getting to teach people.
Anyway I was gonna add general conf this week but it's too long and I didn't wanna stick it at the end and have no one read it. So I'll tell my favorite talk: "our campfire if faith" by Elder gong. And I will elaborate next week.
Have a great ol week mates!
