    Every weekend I look for food trucks that will be in our local area.

If you see a huge metal… [Continue Reading]

    Stopping at Wall Drug is a must if you are in South Dakota. I had never been before so I wasn’t sure what to expect. When we arrived, immediately I felt overwhelmed.

I’m Happy for You

Boy can I relate to this book! I'm Happy for You (Sort Of.....Not Really) really hits home with me. I used to run around being concerned with what everyone thought about me.

They are so consumed with their own lives and trying to project this picture perfect life that they really are not looking at yours. They may ...

So like every first snowfall of the year traffic was horrible. There were semi-trucks stuck on ramps because it was too icy for them, cars spun out in ditches because they forgot to slow down and ...
