Go West Young Man

For everyone who has their atlas out, we have taken that all important left turn, which has us finally going straight west on I-90. In exactly 30 miles we will change times and get to live this hour all over again. Looking forward to the scenic route through the Badlands, though it's pretty darn scenic here. Mary's mom Velma left Wyoming this morning to meet us and help even up the odds, then it will be one adult per child. Diana has not had nearly so many wineries to whine about not going to on this leg. Although we had a scare at the gas station because it also had a casino. Mary was lucky to get her back in the car. We believe South Dakota's state motto may perhaps be, If there's room for a billboard, slap one up. It has served however to get us pretty excited about what's to come.

  1. All I can say is what is a trip without wineries and a casino? Oh, that's right you didn't stop at them so I would say it stinks. :)

    I really do hope y'all are having a blast

  3. I am excited for you all. Enjoy! Meeting Diana was like meeting a long lost member of the family. Janie - one of Mary's sisters.
