Last Post on Our Trip to South Dakota

I’m taking a few mintues to get caught up on my blogging, before we start back up outside.  We are re-roofing the west side of the house (one side a year), and we have been laying transmission pipe (160 feet so far with 120 more to go).  We have to do it in stages…when you are old you work has hard as you always did, it just takes you longer to get ‘stuff’ done. 🙂

On top of everything I had an allegry attack and then caught a cold.   Anyway, we are waiting for the frost to leave to get started again.  I’m using the time to get caught up here.

The last of our little trip we drove through Custer State Park

to see the wildlife

And to admire this beautiful grassland

 one more time before we left for

Nebraska!

Wayne drove all the back roads (county roads not on the Atlas 🙂 from the corner of Nebraska into Colorado to Greeley) which was really a kick. 

We came across a wind farm (See the little windmill in the front) This gives you and idea of how HUGE (and nosiey) these wind machines really are.

Power pole in the foreground.  Green energy only produces a tiny amount of our power…And this farm went on for miles and miles and miles. 

We got in late but made it over to the Assisted Living Home to tell Terry’s and Carolyn’s (and Roger’s) Mom good-bye before we started to our home clear on the otherside of the Rocky Mountains.

We were gone 6 days, but we saw a lot. 

Sure was fun,
