Val and Eric's great garden.
Chops, Mr. Baby, Baby Dogger, our granddog.
On 9/7/11 we decided to take a quick trip to North Dakota to see Val and Eric before the weather changes and while their garden is in full swing. We left on Thurs. afternoon and stayed the night in Deadwood, South Dakota. We had dinner at Kevin Costner's bar and grill (not outstanding). On Friday we headed to ND but since they were working we stopped to play 9 holes of golf at Boulder Canyon in SD outside of Sturgis and then stopped at Bear Butte State Park for a quick hike. Bear Butte is sacred to several tribes and the colorful pieces of fabric are prayer requests. It took us an hour to get to the top and was a 4 mi. total hike. While we were in Dickinson, Val and I did an Alzheimer's walk, went to a few rummage sales, the guys golfed, we all did yard work, and ate plenty of their vegetables. We also hit the Dairy Barn a couple of times. Val and Eric have a few things that I would love, love to have.....a garden, compost bin, rain barrel, greenhouse, and loads of garden veggies. Thanks for a really fun weekend Val, Eric, and Chops!
