Park in the ND Badlands, then Mt. Rushmore and the Needles, and the Crazy Horse Memorial on the way to Denver.  Amy's husband Bruce took us to the Rocky Mtn. Nat. Park and then Don left.</div> <bR> <div> Moral of the story - don't wish for things unless you are certain!</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="http://www.djwinsness.com/bev-jim/nd_2008_don_farm/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.djwinsness.com/bev-jim/nd_200"><B>For a slideshow of the farming photos - click here!</B></A></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I><B>After we left the Hagen farm, we went to the Teddy Roosevelt Nat. Park, Deadwood SD, Mt. Rushmore, and Bruce and Amy took us to the Rocky Mountain National Park.  OK - there are way too many photos, but I just couldn't delete any.  You can click on any one, then go back to the index to see another, or you can take some time and click on Next a few hundred times and see them all.  I'm not at all embarrassed at how many there are as it took us DAYS to go to all these sites and you can see them in less than 10 minutes.</B></I></div> <bR> <div> <I><B>So, my recommendation, don't start until you have time to absorb the beauty of the Badlands, national monumnets, and Rocky Mountains.</B></I></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://www.lrwma.com/bev-jim/nd_2008_don_post_farm/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.lrwma.com/bev-jim/nd_2008_don"><I><B>Click here to see the travels - after the farming!</B></I></A></div> <bR> <div> <I><B>Click on any photo to view it, and then click on "Next" to see the next.....</B></I></div> <bR> <bR> <div> Thanks Don - I really enjoyed your company and I think we did well!</div> </td> </tr></table></body>
