August was still a wet month, but on the dry days we were on the go. This is one of the many toll booths that we drive thru in Chile.
On the 7th we drove to Chillan for a conference. The volcanoes were looking beautiful that day.
On the right side of this picture you can see an outdoor oven.
Nice little farm home with the volcanoes in the background.
The cattle are on pasture all year round.
The next day on the 8th, we went to Coelemu to bring items to the sisters at their new home.
Elder Kauer and the office elders put together some shelves for the new house.
