We finished up our northern Argentina tour with visits to about four stakes and districts. We had some great meetings and met some great leaders and members. In total we drove about 2,000 miles and saw lots of goat herds along the side of the road and acres and acres of sugar cane fields. We brought home some problems to solve and had some great engaging discussions with leaders who needed someone to listen and help them with some of the new changes in the audit program. We were able help some and will continue to work on some of the issues from our office here in Buenos Aires. It is always a meaningful experience to meet with the leaders and members, feel of their spirit and embrace the moment!
Here are a few of our photos from the last part of our trip. (We arrived home this last Monday evening, and Chelsea arrived today, Thursday! We are so thrilled to see her and enjoy her for a few weeks. It feels somewhat strange to have her here but very comfortable and comforting!)

I captured this sweet little spring scene in downtown Cordoba while we were lost trying to find a chapel! This is one side of a huge Catholic church.

We will be home in BA now for a few weeks. We head to Salt Lake City the middle of October for our annual audit conference organized by the church audit department. All of the Area Auditors from around the world will be there... about twenty couples.
After returning from Salt Lake City, we will be home a few more weeks then will head out on a trip to see our Assistant Auditor in the southern most part of Argentina, in Ushuaia , Tierra del Fuego. It will be an exciting trip as we will travel with Hermano Tossen for about four days. After we return from there we will return to BA to prepare for our Annual Conference with our assistant auditors during the first part of December. We have a few odd trips to make inbetween all of this..... Stay tuned!
