Our Mountain

Good neighbors are worth a lot
Count your blessings for what you got
All on a ship together we ride
North to forever, I'm on your side
Strolling together in any direction
Our hands reach each other for protection
Maintain our mountain to keep it safe
Like Vikings with swords, our hero Leif
He married his queen, mother of five
Their love kept the family more than alive
Every weekend was spent in a state park
The sun through the leaves ignited a spark
Fireside chatting in the moonlight til two
What won't we do? What will we do?

Christmas Snowstorm

It was originally reported that this snowstorm was going to miss the Fargo area to the south. We might pick up a few inches.

It ended up being more like a few feet. These pictures are deck side which faces South. The wind was out of the North during the blizzard.

Wrap-around snow results in a major Sunday project for Johnnny. That's OK because the Minnesota Vikings don't play until Monday Night.

Absaraka

While being driven across the state, I couldn't help but snap a passing shot of this exit sign to Absaraka. Perhaps this is alphabetically the first town in North Dakota.
Zap is probably the last.

It seems one of my favorite morning radio personalities in the area is always talking about Absaraka, North Dakota.
How else would I know their team name is The Crows?
And how else would I know this town has an airport?
Last Saturday when this photo was taken,
the landscape and sky looked very Vikings!
