    We were planning to spend the weekend in Theodore Roosevelt Park; but with the run-off from the mountains in Montana;the Garrison dam in Lake Sackewea has been releasing lots of water down stream. The park is flooded where we normally park our camper, and all small streams and creeks anre filling up with this water also.

    BIsmarck is suffering from this; many people are getting flooded out. BIsmarck is bulding a dam to protect most of the city from this ever happening again. THose who have built on land that was built up for home development are the ones that are really suffering. South Dakota is starting to feel this also at Pierre.

    We are home and will be planting and working in the yard. Things we should have done before I went to England and Ireland last month. Getting ready to travel to Wisconsin and stopping to see kid and grands and great grands on the way home. OMG, it wears me out to think about it! Oh yeah, before that dh and I are delegates to our Oklahoma Methodist conference next week. Thank goodness it is in OKC this year instead of Tulsa!

    I am marking quilting lines and sandwiching a full size to get ready to FMQ, in between reading the board that is.

    I am making window coverings. I need to make a quick trip out for mount boards and miscellaneous hardware then it's sew, sew, sew.

    I finally got rid of my "rent optional" tenant and can put the house up for sale and (hopefully) new window coverings will be a plus when shown.

    My son and a friend have come from NC for a quick week-end visit. Went to a local winery today and will have cook-out tonight and again tomorrow. Pool is getting warmer so will do a little water kickin'. Relaxing and enjoying.
