The BEST part - I was reading 'About Us' at Dakota Log Cabin when all of a sudden I realized she had just said the name of the place my mom was born - Lodgepole, SD, pop. 17, where my mom was born in a SOD HOUSE in 1913! So, OF COURSE I sent an Email immediately. DLC is in Hettinger ND, pop ca 5000. I know it well, having visited umpteen times. The owner knows all my relatives - everybody knows everybody in a small town with only one school. Mom taught school in a 1 room schoolhouse in Lodgepole in the 30s before she & Daddy married.
I love reading their newsletters!!! :D :D :D
