1880 Train

We had a nice, relaxing weekend. That’s a good thing because I was exhausted at the end of our work week Sunday. Monday, we took the 1880 train. They have steam trains, but they are all oil fired because coal-fired trains are illegal. They burn used motor oil. Afterwards, we visited several small museums in the area.

Crazy Horse

Tuesday, we went to Crazy Horse. They have an extensive visitor’s center. After 50 years, only the face of the carving is done. We chose not to take the bus ride up to the statue. This picture is from a website. We had dinner at the Purple Pie Place. Their dinner is basic but good. The Chicken Pot Pie is excellent, as are their desert pies.

It is the 4 of Diamonds!

Tuesday evening we went to a magic show. The magician picked Danita to assist him with a card trick. You get a bonus picture of this. The magician is a good illusionist, the show is very family friendly, and everybody had a good time. When we came out, the sky looked very dramatic.

We’re having a computer shortage. My computer stopped working, so we’re sharing Danita’s computer. The part Dell needs is on back order, so it seems I won’t get my computer back this month.

We subscribed to Netflix to get some video entertainment in the evenings. I don’t know why anybody subscribes to them. I haven’t found a single good streaming movie. Every time I find a movie we might want to watch, it’s either not listed or it’s listed as DVD only. I haven’t found a decent way to search for streaming movies in Netflix. I can’t believe the service is that bad. For now, we’re watching “Orange is the New Black” and reruns of “The Flash”. Neither show is riveting, but it gives us a couple of hours of down time in the evening.

Dramatic Sky

I hope this finds everybody doing well.
