I wanted to share the link of advertisement of my husband's new Wine bar that was on the news tonight. Ernesto's (Spanish word for Ernest) thought if I shared it with you I could maybe perc some family interest to come visit us (hate not having family near by)!!!! Dieter (retired FBI special agent and real estate developer for historic development) is a fan of the author Ernest Hemingway and based his Wine bar on Hemingway's life and writings. Dieter rehabbed this old building with trees growing out of it and animals flowing in and out and has now been awarded as one of the 14 buildings in the St. Louis metropolitan area as the best historic rehabs.

South Dakota Winter

Winter Poem

It's winter in South Dakota
And the gentle breezes blow

Seventy miles an hour

At thirty-five below.

Oh, how I love South Dakota
When the snow's up to your butt

You take a breath of winter

And your nose gets frozen shut.

Yes, the weather here is wonderful

So I guess I'll stick around

I could never leave South Dakota

I'm frozen to the ground!

Inventors from Howard

Both Randy Leith and Dave Clarke graduated in my class at Howard.

1/2/10 - Custom machines both big and small

HOWARD, S.D. (AP) - Two men at Howard are looking for customers
to buy specialty equipment they've designed.
Randy Leith came up with a grader attachment for small tractors
of 45 horsepower or less. He says it's used to grade roads that are
too small or inconvenient for traditional road graders.
Dave Clarke created a combine header that can harvest 24 rows.
He thinks it's the largest in the industry and fills a need from
farmers who want to make fewer passes through the field.
