Does the saying “no news is good news” apply to small businesses?
If yes then we are on the right track.
Here are some pictures from a recent drive across the good old USA
Heading west into the sun
Road side attractions
Followed a herd of bison through a hike in North Dakota
Saw lots of prairie dogs and one rattle snake
And some signs that we are getting close to mountains
Tune in next week as we leave North Dakota and get to Wyoming and maybe Montana
And just in case you liked the photos here are some little notes app notes from the trip. My plan was to get you into reading with the little pretty picture captions and now since the words are starting to comfort you maybe, just maybe you’ll want more of them…
Day one - Left at 6am drove straight to Chicago windows down no AC
Day two - As we drove into Bismarck, ND we watched bolts of lighting illuminate the sky orange in front of us, we kept driving and soon it was lighting up the sky all around us. We set up our tent next to a big cow on a hill off the highway and fell asleep to the sound of rain and thunder.
Day three - In the day light we realize we slept on the edge of a golf course. The rain sends the golfers home as we make oatmeal on a picnic table. A section of the highway off 94 is enchanted by huge metal sculptures. After stopping at every sculpture a man named Dave who built all these sculptures sold us ice cream from his sparse gift shop. We talked to him about dying towns and his hopes of creating a tourist economy with his enormous metal fabrications to keep his town alive. He also told us of the sculptures he hopes to create before he dies. In Theodore Roosevelt National Park we made lunch at our camp site over looking a mostly dried up river. We went on a hike and followed a herd of bison through the trail before dark. We didn’t pass any other hikers but we saw prairie dogs everywhere and in the tall brush had a close encounter with a rattle snake. We made it back to make dinner.
Tune in next week for day four and on.
