Geography has been the theme of these 3 days. We have moved from the prairie to the great plains.Within the plains we enjoyed the badlands of the T.R. National Park. While seeking to take his picture, Judy annoyed a large bull buffalo who stomped his feet and made threatening noises - we left quickly.
Thursday night we found the famous Medora musical to be in desperate need of a script. Interestingly the headliner was Avner the Eccentric, surely one of the last living remnants of Yiddish vaudeville. The ampitheater does have a spectacular setting.
Today we drove through the "Big Open" of Montana - 90 miles with no sevices - miles and miles of grassland. The weather has been wonderful, warm and dry. Last night's campground was much in need of rural renewal - the first disappointing campground. Bill enjoyed the freight trains going through on the half hour but Judy had to use her earplugs.
The Adventures of Super Grandpa:
The largest Holstein cow in the world wandered into our campground in North Dakota. Grandpa decided to milk her. Manga (Grandma) was proud of his milking ability and made butter and ice cream for the whole campground.

Glad to see a new post. We suffered our first loss. Sam played well though. Lynley will be home for the weekend. WE had to buy a new television. Our died. Ken figured out that in 20 years of marriage this is just our third television. So I guess we got our money's worth.
Hi Mom and Dad! That's quite the picture of Super Grandpa underneath the cow's teat. Wow. That must have been a lot of butter and ice cream Manga made. We are getting ready to go to 6Flags with the Truckenmillers in the morning. XO Sarah
The boys all wanted to go to bed early so they could be ready for Six Flags. This is a first! I worked all day at the 4-H snack bar at the Fonda Fair yesterday and Greg is trying to keep his head above water with work. The boys start school on Wednesday. Yeah! Glad you went north rather than south on your cross country trip or you would have hit a huge traffic snag around Louisiana. Rachel
