Home again

Dear Family and Friends,

Usually when we leave Powers Lake for home we go through Stanley and back on Highway 2. This time we went east on Highway 50 which connects with 52 through Donnybrook, Carpio and on to Minot. I believe this route is much more scenic and with the weather we have been having, the clouds have been spectacular. We both love the big white fluffy clouds and the deep blue sky of the Northern Plains. Karen has quite a file of cloud photos assembled already.

We arrived in Minot and spent a good part of the day doing our monthly shopping. We don't get to Minot as often as we once did because of gas prices so when we are there we spend the day. When we left for home, a major rain storm began. We probably should have stayed and waited it out but not knowing how long it would last we headed to Butte since it was getting late. We drove in the rain the whole way and as soon as we pulled into Butte, it quit and the sun was shining. We did, however, pull up to our house as a beautiful rainbow was forming over our yard and a river of water was still running down our street.

We hope you enjoy our journeys with us. However, if you want to be excluded from all of our excursions, just let us know.

Love, Keith and Karen
