Sandman's Journal

South Dakota Thanksgiving 2007 was just right. Lots of family, food, and fun. My aunt & uncle, Josh and Coral Sand, have a ranch outside of Spearfish that is perfect for housing family guests. In fact, it doubles as Sand Creek Bed & Breakfast during the rest of the year.

A few highlights from my stay there (not counting culinary delights) include, 1) sledding with my sweet little cousins Hannah & Liljiana, 2) watching Grandpa play a waltz on his harmonica while waltzing with Grandma on the evening of their 65th wedding anniversary party, 3) viewing the wonderful 25-minute digitized slide show that my cousin Jenny created by scanning hundreds of photos of Grandma & Grandpa--and their offspring--throughout the years.
