Another traditional Argentine "dance" is done with the Argentine version of the lasso. When roping cows, Argentines used ropes twisted together with stones on the end, which twist around the cow's head. In this type of performance the ropes are separated.
Here are Sara and Eva toasting each other on the bus ride to the Misiones province. It was a pretty swanky bus and they are enjoying a pre-supper whiskey!
Here is Patricia, the sister of some good friends of mine in Buenos Aires. She was an incredibly gracious host to us during our stay in Misiones. Here she is showing us the mines in Wanda.
Here are Sara and Eva next to the semi-precious stones.

Our first night there Patricia had a ministry activity, so we stayed home and played the piano. The next day Eva and Sara went to see the stunning Iguazu Falls while I went to meet new ministry contacts (more about that soon, including pictures of me and lots of cow parts sharing a ride). On Sunday we played and sang hymns with Patricia since her church shares a pastor with other congregations and there was no church the Sunday we were there.
