We have some pictures of some cool windmill farms in South Dakota, of us at the largest ball of twine, and a few other oddities. Perhaps some time we'll post them but for right now, we're more in the mood to figure out geocaching and do some trip planning. I think we're going to spend some time reconfiguring. The weather has matched our emotions: wild, vacillating, lots of breathtaking storms, many mornings of waking to brilliant sunshine and peaceful puffs of clouds in the sky. We're going offline for what could be quite a while...but who knows. Today we're planning a hike in Black Elk National Forest and we're going to figure out where it is that we really want to go on this trip...doing some storming and hopefully some forming after that.
A quick aside...if any of you are thinking of dropping the $80 bucks on an annual pass for the national parks, forests, and rec areas: think twice. It's a giant rip-off. It's not worth anything that we've discovered so far, and it certainly doesn't help you with camping site fees. It's stealth camping for the rest of the trip for us. RVs have turned camping into an expensive affair...most places are now charging the same rate for tenters as for RVers.

Glad to see an update.
It sounds like you are doing well and got over those initial difficulties (although I am sure there are still tiffs about things that seem significant at the time)
Anyway, we miss you guys and enjoy the updates.
ps. The CSA is going really well. We are going to be helping out at the wednesday pickups. We talked with Anja tonight and that seems like it is going to be a really neat opportunity. Thank you guys for such a wonderful gift.
Love the pictures. Seems like you should have had boots on instead of sandals. Can't tell you how much I enjoy checking in and finding out about your latest adventures. It gives me those warm, fuzzy feelings. Stay safe and well.
