Go, See, Do, Experience!
Charla is on a quilting retreat this week, leaving me unsupervised. Trust me, this will be a shorter post! 😎 She was sweet, and made me food for the week. I ate most of it on Monday. Since she is gone, you get me this week. I am going to talk about HOWE issues we... Continue Reading →
We said our goodbyes to Mom & Dad and Bridget & Richard. Today our Travel Day was from Missoula, MT, to Clarkston, WA. We stopped at Loves for fuel and breakfast at the adjoining Hardee’s. We knew it would be a long travel day with not a lot of towns around. We drove up the... Continue Reading →
This was one of two longer travel back to back days for us. Just around 5 1/2 hours so wasn’t bad. The road from Williston, ND, to Harve, MT, was a highway and very good condition. We had a deer jump out in front of us but thankfully Kevin kept control and the deer got... Continue Reading →
The Williston, North Dakota, city event webpage is one of the best laid out information given that I have ever seen. Among the other things we found, and did, (see last week's post) I saw Sweetcorn & Quilt Festival. Of course “quilt” caught my eye! Turns out this is a youth camp that started in...

Continuing to follow the Lewis & Clark Trail, our Travel Day took us from Riverdale, North Dakota to Williston, North Dakota. I read out loud our new book that we bought after being at Fort Mandan last week. It is Waheenee, an Indian girl’s story told by herself to Gilbert L Wilson back in 1920s.... Continue Reading →
Dear Reader: I have a question for you and would like your feedback in answer. The question is at the end of this blog post. GUESS WHAT: 1/2 way of the Missouri River is Bismarck, ND, at 1170.5 miles. Full length of that river is 2341 miles. We continue to see prairie land, flat land... Continue Reading →
Today we slept in and then went down to I-90 and then over to Chamberlain, South Dakota for the day. It was 11:30 a.m. when we got to town and we were hungry. I looked up some places to eat in this small town (pop around 2,000) and looked up the menu to see if... Continue Reading →
Check in is at 4:00 p.m. at Corps of Engineer’s Left Tailrace Campground, Fort Thompson, South Dakota. With less than 4 hours drive on this Travel Day, we had plenty of time. The other day I decided to do grocery shopping this morning in Sioux City, IA. It worked out great! Since we will be... Continue Reading →
(Note to readers; each blog post covers about a week and is taken from parts of my travel journal.) We went north about 20 miles to Elk Point, South Dakota, for Lewis & Clark Trail. This is the Elk Sign campsite where a vote was taken for who to replace Sergeant Floyd, since he died... Continue Reading →
It rained last night. Yesterday, to prepare for Travel Day today, Kevin put away Ambient Weather station and ham radio antenna in the basement of HOWE (footnote 1). So, I said, if Ambient shows rain… it means the basement of HOWE is flooding. He got a good laugh out of that. Thankfully it wasn’t raining... Continue Reading →
