NDEA 3 Days

We had so much fun over NDEA this year. The kids were out of school Friday and we took advantage of the time off by trecking through South Dakota. WOW, the fall colors were beautiful as were all the sights we saw! Sometime I'll get my pix together and post the art photos from our trip. Amazing, just amazing! If you haven't visited yet, plug it in for next year's October fun. The temps were great and comfortable, and the fog lifted by mid morning. COOL!

Interesting Signs From our Road Trip

Ok, let me understand this right, it's 10 dollars a person, but if you have less than six people it's free, but if you have a whole car load it's $27. What were they thinking? HA!
Like there aren't any large cattle? They don't really come in small and medium!
This was at Wall Drug. IF the hotel had anything OTHER than color TV I would be severely worried! BTW, this is NOT where we stayed. HA!
Yes, they have a posted a sign at the park entrance, but NOT near the prairie dogs. They actually have THE bubonic plague, BLACK DEATH, that killed everyone back in the 1300's. OUCH!
A wheelchair ramp connecting two platforms at CrazyHorse actually had a sign that said, NO WHEELCHAIRS. Things that make you go hmmm!
Ehhhhh, someone tell the sign maker that the viewpoint is covered by the dew point! U can't see nothing jack!
Who would make a tunnel of rock to DRIVE thru then put a sign that said FALLING ROCK right next to it. Makes you want to ZOOOM thru right? He He

Life is like Coffee Movie

Life is like Coffee Movie: "Life is like Coffee. Do you know people that just seem to be happier in general? Do you say to yourself, "I want to be more like them"? Often, the happiest people in the world don’t have the best of everything...they just make the best of everything!"
