Home Again!

Thanks so much to Sara and Jere sharing about the Staycation. We should have thought twice about the CANDISC Bike ride. OH MY! We were not prepared for the 300 miles of hills and NO TOWNS in between. I think camping might have been fun, if we had not ridden 75 miles a day, against the wind. Trying not to be critical, but it was tough. Patty Roberts, my college roommate, from Wichita, came and joined us. We did have some good laughs. We had to use the Porta Poties, yuck. They also had 4 shower units on a trailer, called the North Dakota Water Shed, with the Shed we did have hot water, but with 500 people, long lines!!! I have to think about going next year. My Bike did great, I do love my NEW RUBY! Grandma was the most popular person in Mohall. She had visitors everyday and did meals on wheels from the Nursing Home. North Dakota has alot of Programs available to elderly people living by themselves or with family. So we are using them as much as we can. Congrats to Jube on her new job! And Jen is going back to school tomorrow, also working at the Print Shop on Campus. Josh and Angie and girls are looking good on the WebCAm, love to talk to the little ones. Miss them and you all! Love Mema
