We’re Home!

Codi and I are back in Lake Oswego after an awesome trip to North Dakota. Zeppo, here we come!

This was a funny sight…

There was a gorgeous sunset just outside Minneapolis. It had all the colors of a rainbow, including bright greens and purples!

More Fun and Beautiful Sights in North Dakota

Codi and I have been having such a great time in North Dakota that there’s been almost no time to post photos. Well, we’re on our way home to Oregon tomorrow, so photos will be posted soon. Here are a few photos for now…

North Dakota badlands, about 10 miles north of Killdeer, along the Little Missouri River.

Here’s Codi standing over the Painted Hills National Park near Medora, ND.

We took some time for target practice with compound bows. It had been a long time since either of us has picked up a bow, but we did pretty well. It was fun!

Here I am preparing a shot…

After target practice, we enjoyed a fire and roasted marshmallows with Codi’s family.

North Dakota is Beautiful!

Codi and I are having a great time in North Dakota!! It’s gorgeous here! Wiiide open plains, picturesque buttes and massive skies. The weather is perfect and the air is pristine.

This is the Killdeer Battlefield located at the foot of the Killdeer mountains (buttes, really). It was the site of a famous battle between US forces and the Nakota, Dakota and Lakota indians.

Here’s an old abandoned school house that we found way out in the middle of nowhere. It still had the old wood & iron desks inside – and two outhouses in the back. Olde school fun!

Here I am on a huge bail of hay. It took a sprint and a very high jumpt to get up there! What a view from on top of the bail, though! I could see for about 25 miles, the sky was so bright and clear!

P.S. I think I’ll now refer to North Dakota as “North DaCodi”.

Jets, Jets and More Jets!

A few minutes ago, a large number of fighter jets flew over our apartment. It was very loud and very cool!
