Sept. 17-20
Sept. 17-20 Hill city
The weather turned miserable from Montana to North Dakota. When we got into the town of Medora, North Dakota, the temperature was 35 degrees at 12:30pm and snow flurries where falling. It was bone chilling. So we headed south and never found good weather. Eventually ariving in South Dakota. We saw deer, pronghorn, buffalo, and turkey. There where large fields of sunflowers and beautiful scenery which would have looked better without the rain.
We are now in Hill City, North Dakota. Today we went to the winery open houses. Very interesting…and walked the town. It is a fun place with people in period costumes and gun fights going on in the street. Tomorrow we will visit Gene’s nephew & wife in Rapid City and then on to the southern part S.D. We have visited most of this area many years ago and as recently as 2 years ago.
We had lunch today with Gene's nephew Ken & wife Carol.
Tomorrow we where going to head to Nebraska & Colorado but it is hot there…so…we will stay right were we are for a few more days. Gene looked up the weather in the mountains of CO...Fort Collins...it is going to be 95%.
Dixie & Jim are heading home. They are in California and it's hot, so they said they will bite the bullet and head home across Arizona and then New Mexico.
I now cannot receive my emails or send them. Frustrating!
