Elder Brody Ray Wight - The South Side Eskimo

Curtis' friend Brody is serving a mission in Argentina. He sends me a weekly email to pass along to Curtis. I thought everyone would enjoy reading this email I received on October 26, 2005:

"This evening I'm getting on a plane, not to go back North but rather to go South. That’s right, I'm going to Ushuaia! That is officially the area furthest south in the entire WORLD. I'm so way incredibly stoked I can barely take it. I don’t know if you realize this, but my new area is easily the most desirable in the entire mission. I'm so incredibly way super extra extrodinarly stoked to the bone! I never thought I would make down to Ushuaia. You all should look up pictures there. I think it's super awesomely sweet. Plus how many people in the world can say they’ve been to the END OF THE WORLD? Part of my area is this little island with 2400 people on it that’s actually part of Chile, and it's even further south. President told me we might go there. How sweet!"

Ushuaia, capital of Tierra del Fuego Province, Argentina, is considered to be the southernmost city in the world. Ushuaia is located on the southern coast of the Tierra del Fuego island in Argentina, in a setting surrounded by mountains and overlooking the Beagle Channel. It is 745 miles from Ushaia to Antarctica. The city has about 50,000 inhabitants
