Some things never do get old....


One thing that I enjoy about my job is the ability to travel. Last night on the way to Pierre, it was a great evening to be out and about. One of my favorites, which I get to see all the time going to Miller is coming over the Wessington Hills and seeing that small town sitting there as the sun fades away. The small town look with the old elevator and the water tower makes it really feel like it belongs in a painting somewhere. Another great one was coming over the hills on the way home outside of Pierre where the lights of the small towns can be seen for miles and miles. I just love the open road and the great views you get to see in the travels around the state.

Well, now we get right back into the thick of things next week. I get started Tuesday with a somewhat big game, the region 3 game at the arena, then spend Thursday and Friday in Miller for districts, then have hockey also on Friday, and Saturday, and Sunday, and start up with basketball again the following week. Quite a busy time of year, and it's sure nice to feel the great weather back. I'm trying not to get spring fever, cuz we'll pry end up with one big storm yet, but it's nice to see winter's stranglehold on us fading. Plus, we now have planned our new yearly Memorial Day weekend camping trip. It's getting so close, I can almost taste it through the cold winter winds.....
