Paces in Argentina

 James is always one to live on the wild side--intentionally or unintentionally. His nieces and nephews frequently ask for a James Story because they are so plentiful, and he found an occasion here in Argintina to provide them with another one.  Footage from a past James Story A small bit of background: we received news while we were in Ushuaia that Susan's mother, whose health has been declining the past few years had passed away. Susan traveled to Utah to be with her family for the funeral as soon as we returned. Grant stayed here with us.  The week that she was gone, James had scheduled to have a fairly common procedure done on his heart. He had been experiencing an arrythmia for a few years and since our health coverage here is pretty darn good, and Argentina has well trained (although underpaid) doctors we decided now would be a good time to have an ablation done. The ablation is done by inserting a tube into a major artery near the groin and going up to the heart. Once inside

We had to squeeze in one more trip before we left Argentina. James started his mission and spent six months in Ushuaia, the southernmost city in South America. Chile has a town further south, but Argentina claims the most southern city.    It was surprisingly gorgeous. We were going to go a few months earlier but it worked better for us to go in April, so it was cold.  Charlotte got this poncho for her birthday a few days before this trip. She didn't take it off the entire time. These signs are in all the touristy towns, trying to remind the world that the Malvinas/Falkland Islands belong to Argentina.  We randomly stopped at this little valley that looked pretty from the road. It was a misty/autumny/enchanting horse pasture. We chased the horses and felt like we were in a fairy tale.  These horses liked the way Jack's feet smelled. He felt so accepted.  We took a boat ride out to see the Lighthouse at the End of the World. We also sailed past an island covered in sea lions and
