Paige came to visit!

 Such a fun week!  Paige flew in on 8/25, and only left yesterday, 9/2.  We had a fun week, and we spent a couple of days driving through the hills.  I hadn't done any exploring yet this summer, so it was really nice to be able to show her around.  

We did Mt. Rushmore, Iron Mountain Road, the Wildlife Loop, Needles Highway, Deadwood, Lead, Spearfish Canyon - and even had lunch at Guadalahara in Spearfish.  

I'm so glad she was here, I really think it was good for both of us.  She even put up with sleeping on the horrible jackknife sofa - I got a mattress topper but I think she was only being polite when she said it was ok to sleep on.

 

We saw a ton of Bison, some Pronghorns, wild Burros, and some prairie dogs

She said she got chills as we were walking toward Mt. Rushmore

Miscellaneous August

Scott and Angie thought it was amusing that so many people get me and Anne mixed up - so they bought us caps.  Mine says "Not Anne" and hers says "Not Sue".  What a hoot!!

 

And, Debbie and Mark Helgeson were here for the weekend.  They stayed on a sales stay in a Colt2.  They were able to tour the hills on Saturday, and we had dinner together Friday and Saturday nights.  It was fun to see them, even if for a short visit.
