Squash

I called Louie one afternoon in the fall as I was getting ready to cook dinner, and asked him to bring me some squash, because it would go good with whatever main dish I was making.  A few minutes later, this is what I got...a whole wagon full!

Smart Phone Class

Although it is hard to imagine, I have been teaching some classes with my friend Sherry Babicky for our AAUW study group, Tech Topics.  They are usually at her house, but this one was at my house, and it was about smart phones.  

I was able to show screens like this on my big TV.

Several weeks later we had a small-group followup class.

Badlands and Black Hills Trip September 2017

In the fall of 2017 Louie and I took a road trip out to the Badlands and Black Hills in South Dakota.

Prairie dogs as far as the eye could see!

We hiked up into the Badlands.

We had a really nice picnic.
      


Next we saw Mount Rushmore,

and Jewel Cave.

We drove through Custer State Park.  The scenery was spectacular.

We had another picnic lunch before it rained.

Needles Eye Tunnel

So many weird rock formations,

And more tunnels.

We toured the very historical Mount Moriah Cemetery in Deadwood, where Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane are buried, among many others.

This herd of mule deer were walking through while we were there.

Barn Roof

The barn needed a roof, and I was so worried Louie would try to do it.  This was in 2017, so Louie was 65!  The guy you can barely see on the barn roof is NOT Louie!

Scary ladders!

Bradley Goes Back to School

I don't usually put pictures on here that I wasn't present for, but this is so precious, I can't take a chance on forgetting.  They had a welcome processional, and although it doesn't show in the video, Bradley went back through a second time, he loved it so much!
