My wife is itching to go north to see some Fall color this year. Travel and visiting relatives up north in Northern Indiana is a real problem because we have a dog we can't leave behind with anyone, and we can't expect her people to accept him into their homes. He's a real ball of fire and we love him very much.

So...we started talking about where we could go that would be far enough away from Michigan City that we wouldn't feel guilty for not going to see them all, and I came up with the Black Hills. I've never been there and neither has she. We've found a place to stay for four or five days, but it is booked until October 10th. It is between Rapid City and the Black Hills and looks like a pretty good deal.

Is that too late in the season, or should we jump on it?


Don't be the darkness.

America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.
