hello family,
So this week we went to a little pueblo outside of town, called
Embalse. we actually go there every week to work and eat with our ward
mission leader, but this week i brought my camera, so im sending a few
photos. it was BEAUTIFUL there. very cool. little towns like embalse
for me are really what make argentina. the citys... well they are kind
of just a bunch of other cities crammed together, and almost
everything is in english, its wierd. its not argentina like i like it.
embalse, its small, green, full of super chill people that live on
high steep hills with steep rocky steps that seem 100 years old, and
just sit around and drink mate. there are streams for fishing, there
are restaurants to buy authentic argentine food, thats dang good. its
just a great little place. very wealthy because its so beautiful, so
they people dont want much gospel, but who knows, we might find one
there.
Its been a great week, i just got my new companion, elder
hruska, from texas, and were gonna work like mad. this week will keep
us real busy, we{ll be into something different every day, im excited.
we got to watch 17 miracles last monday. i hope you have all seen it,
if not, see it, because seriously, that movie was powerful. i bawled
like the time me and meg and peter watched the christmas shoes. very
good movie, hope you watch it and feel the same way i did afterwards.
Life is great, were just right in the business, and i really feel
that something is about to happen, something good. in other good news,
we got new mattresses and pillows, which is great since i have been
using a pair of sweatpants as a pillow this transfer. also, i got a
late christmas package from mom and dad that i didnt even know was
coming. we took my coca cola boat on its maiden voyage in the public
fountain, and shes real smooth. we named her the S.S Eternal
Companion.
Also, the beef jerky is amazing to just look at, and i had a
piece last night. sent me into shock just about. so good. im very
excited to try making the root bear, and i just think the whole things
was great. thank you very much. sad thing about the ranch packet,
pretty sure you cant get sour cream here. ill keep looking though.
Christal, i never got your christmas card, so im excited to get
it. I love you all and miss you like crazy, send me stuff all you
want, i promise i wont get sick of it, and ill send you stuff too!
thats a promise.
Anyway, love yalls.
Elder Bridge
