IS Anyone out there?

That was an event that was celebrated here in North Dakota. There was a big rendezvous at Washburn N.D. to commemorate the corps of discoverys journey to the West and their return.

We have a huge lake just South of Minot where I live called lake Sakakwea. It has over 3000 miles of shoreline.

There is an interpretive center in Washburn, the home of Fort Mandan. That was where the Corps camped during the winter.

They have a rendezvous there every summer and for the hardy folks there is on in winter also.

Now if you ever spent a winter day on the prairie you will understand what these people went through when it was -30° on a good day.

I know this pansy a$$ wouldn't do it. I hunt in that kind of weather but I can go back to my nice warm pick-up.

Best wishes, Bill
