Tree Farms

Yeah so i found out that Chile makes alot of their money from selling wood. We went to a volcano today (no big deal) anyway yeah we drove for almost two hours through these tree farms!! they went on forever! I honestly tought they extended all the way around the world. you try to see the end but nope there wasn´t one. Yup we went to a volcano. it was so freakin cold at the begining. but then we hiked up far enough to wear the wind stopped. we couldn´t hike all the way to the top so we just hiked to a lake below it. it was so so cool!!! I got Mrs Dent a rock from a Chilean Volcano. pretty sick huh? across the lake and over some mountains was Argentina. so we were pretty close to the border but i just couldn´t see Argentina. really wanted to. anyway so after having the perfect day of hiking a volcano and playing in the snow (in the middle of Augost!) the sad part comes. i forgot a battery for my camera. so Elder Demke and I took a bunch of sweet sweet pics. but then when we were headed back he lost his camera!!! we have no proof that we were actually there :( we ran up the entire trail looking for it with no success. bummer. o well. our investigadors are doin well. The investigador with the experiance last week didn´t come :( but i´ll get on that. k so we taught this fifteen year old girl and we gave her the book of mormon and a pamphlet of the first lesson ( the Restauracion) yeah when we went back to teach it she taught us the first lesson!! it was so sick! we gave her the goal of getting baptized on the fourth! so we´ll see how that goes. she knows the book is true. the book of mormon is everything! it proves everything!
