On our way back to ND we had to make a couple stops, these old bones don't like riding for more than so long. Barb suggested we go thru Pierre the state capitol. We got there just before the building closed so took a really quick look around. It was beautiful. I would love to visit every state capitol building in the US. I fell in love with the grand architecture!

After our hike up Crazy Horse Mountain we spent the rest of the afternoon experiencing the rest of the complex. We looked thru the museums and buildings capturing it all with our cameras. It will take me some time to get thru them all! Of all the things we see it seems I am always most drawn to nature, to the beauty only God can create. These pretty tulips we found nestled between two buildings tucked away from most peoples eyes. Glad our goal is to experience the whole of the places Barb and I visit. Most people rush thru and miss so much. I'm glad I get to share them with you!

After an extended abscence, I'm back! I never intended to be gone so long, but habits are like that. I got out of the habit due to traveling and such. I miss taking photos every day, I miss blogging and I miss those of you who read and comment. I took this in late May when I went to visit my sis in law in SD. That weekend storms tore up parts of central SD and ND with heavy rains, winds and even some hail if I remember right. We were blessed to have missed it all! The heavens declare the glory of God! What looks to be grand cloud formations are but little bits of cotton in the creators hand. The richest colors we see will be pastel in comparison to what our eyes will behold in heaven and the wind, lightning or the storms of life are all under the control of the Master who says to the storm "Peace be still" and the wind and waves obey! Storms can cause us to fear, help me Father to look past my fear and see your hand at work.

As I play catch up, I will post the date the photo was taken
Saturday afternoon we took a little tour of Huron, Barb showed me some wonderful old buildings (I love old buildings!) One of our first stops was the octagon house. Really, it has 8 sides. It is in the process of a slow revitalization! If I can learn more, I'll share it with you!
Due to 11 days of no sun, I've been a little blue, didn't even want to take photos. I'll post a few others from my trip for the days I missed. Sorry for my absence, I've missed this little daily ritual and hopefully am back on track!
