Vacation1

Well Prior to leaving on June 23, this is what I woke up to that morning....Makes me wonder why I have a garden I tell ya this is the worst year I have ever seen, just swamp land! :(


We took this trip as a group...SIL and her hubby went with us as well as another man. 2 Motorcycles and one car later we were on our way.....to North dakota! Due to a late start we stopped the first night in Mobridge and stayed at the Casino hotel there, ate the buffet, of course it rained, but still a positive expereicne.



Next morning we pull put early






and not far up the road....near Roscoe this is what we ran into.... not fun watching these guys on their bikes go across this...water up to the road in many places as we travelled.





Ooops this was leaving the cassino....sorry wrong order, some day I will remember this










We went across SD most of the way, stopped in Lemmon for a walk, and then went up into Hettinger and New England ND. Gorgeous areas and as soon as I get those photos uploaded I will share them with you as well,...this flower bed above is a small garden area I took out in Medora..... More on that area in a later post too...we went to the muscial they have there, love that place, The burning hills singers are wonderful.......Just prior to the musical we went to the pitch fork fondue, That is simply amazing as well to watch them place the steaks on pitch forks and fry them in drums of oil....3 minutes and you have the best steak I guarantee you will ever eat!!












The morning of the 24th we were departing Medora and came across a car show. None of us really into old cars, but we stopped and walked around any how. So if any of you like this type of thing I do have more photos if you would like to see.....






























Sorry I do not know my automobils at all...... but it is fun to learn their history and see the restoration that went into them.
