Day 4

Day 4:

This was a monument in Minden that was built to honor the guy who united Germany. I can't

remember his name. But it's interesting because this is where the Hale Hitler sign came from.

Went for a little hike and there was the tower pictured below. Some kind of look out

I guess. It was pretty cool.

The view from the monument.

 So this a field full of these beautiful little blossoms. They will be harvested and made into cooking oil.

 We saw so many old windmills. I loved them! And then these german style houses were pretty neat too. 

 This was a little town square with a church in the middle of Bad Essen. These little villages are so quaint and homey. I could have hung out all day here.

 We went to see Brother Pflaum. He is Russian and fed us lunch. He was one of Carson's favorite people out on the mission. Carson really liked him.

 We went to meet a really cool lady named Rosewitah after lunch. Here are some shots I took on our walk over to her house. There were blossoms everywhere and everything was so green and beautiful.

 This is Roswitah. Like I said, she was a really cool person. Her house was amazing. Her husband had completely restored it. The next series of pictures are of her property. She took us out to see her horses. Halee would have been in Heaven. Rosewitah has to be one of the most sincere, genuine people I have ever met. I am so glad Carson got to know her.

Dinner with Brother Altmann. Another of Carson's favorites. Carson says he wants to be just like Brother Altmann. He is a very kind, loving, good man. Here pictured is also Sister Wehnke, the

relief society president in their ward.
