Sturgis 85th Anniversary

 Angie, Scott, Neil, Pam and Jake were here!!  The Gaines' were here for a week - I'm so glad they finally made it!!   Angie and Scott only for a few nights because they had to be back in Georgia - Angie starts teaching this week!

They packed a lot of rides in - I worked all weekend, but Scott led the way through the Hills.  Jake drove the truck.

On Monday, Neil and Pam went into Sturgis, Jake and I golfed at the HR Golf Club - so that he could play the course that Mike loved.

Yesterday we went to the Badlands.

I think they loved all the riding through the Hills, and I'm so happy everyone was here and got to experience the Sturgis Rally.

Rodeo on the first night.  We didn't stay long, they were whipped after their trip


They all made it to Mt Rushmore!

Eating at Mike's favorite - The Loud American

Main Street Sturgis




 We got pictures at Mike's sign for the Pasture Golf Course, and in front of his tree.





 
Neil took me for a spin around the park

Golfing PawPaw's favorite course


A great day at the Badlands



July - Angie and Scott Visit

 Angie and Scott stopped at Hart Ranch for a week on their way to meet Nate and Mila in Yellowstone.  We had fun. We went off road one day to Rochford - and I was able to get a picture of them in front of the Moonshine Gulch Saloon.  

We went to the rodeo - with my friend Vicky Palser

I believe he is flipping me off!!!

Raining the day they left

See you for Sturgis!!!

70th birthday😭

 

Melrose - Visiting Aunt Lorraine

I took a quick trip to Melrose to see Aunt Lorraine - she fell and fractured her pelvis 😟 

It was so good to see her - and all the girls - and Butch and Al and Shawn.  Lorraine looked great, we had a wonderful visit.

I'll stop by again on my way to Annapolis after I leave Hart Ranch at the end of September.

We met in the Bistro and celebrated Butch's 89th birthday!!


She has a really nice room at the Care center.
