Quite a Month
Well. This has been quite a month. Lots of work-related work, and lots of school-related work. I have been attempting to catch up on blog reading, and hopefully will have everyone’s posts read! It is great seeing what everyone has been doing and creating! DH and I took a little break last Saturday and went… Continue reading Quite a Month
That Just Flew By!
I’m back! I didn’t actually go anywhere, life just kind of got crazy over the last two weeks. I will post later this week with knitting stuff and catch up on everyone’s blogs as well. But in other news… Our town got a bookstore! Knuth Book Cellar opened last Friday, and we went in to… Continue reading That Just Flew By!
Last Agriculture Report for 2025
We are supposed to get down below freezing tonight for the first time this year! I had the vague sense that we still had a few veggies out there, so went out to take one last look before it was too late. It’s a good thing I checked – we would have missed out on… Continue reading Last Agriculture Report for 2025
Badlands, Minuteman Missile Site, and Dino Park
Although we got to see a lot of interesting sites on our South Dakota trip, for us the big three were Mt. Rushmore, Devil’s Tower, and the Badlands.

You drive around it for upwards of an hour, and around every bend and… Continue reading Badlands, Minuteman Missile Site, and Dino Park
Devil’s Tower and the Center of the Nation
Continuing on with tales from the west! On the second day of our trip we went to Devil’s Tower. On the way, we took a little detour and stopped in Belle Fourche, home to the Geographic Center of the Nation! Except the actual geographic center is 8 miles away in the middle of a field… Continue reading Devil’s Tower and the Center of the Nation
Mt. Rushmore and the Mammoth Site
Back to my recent South Dakota trip! On our first day in Rapid City, we went to Mt. Rushmore, and then the Mammoth Site in Hot Spring. Rushmore was really impressive to visit – pictures don’t really do it justice. But here are some of mine anyway 🙂 You start seeing the monument right as… Continue reading Mt. Rushmore and the Mammoth Site
South Dakota: There and Back Again
Earlier this month, DH and I went on a great big road trip to South Dakota and a little bit of Wyoming and Iowa. We took our time getting there, stopping for as many wacky roadside things as I could talk him into. We stopped at the World’s Only Corn Palace in Mitchell, which was… Continue reading South Dakota: There and Back Again
I’m Back!
Sorry for the long radio silence – there have been a few things going on with me. Last week, DH and I took a wonderful road trip to South Dakota (and a little bit of Wyoming). So much more about that in the next few posts. Also, I started graduate school. I didn’t want to… Continue reading I’m Back!
