a return from so. dak

ahh, twas good seeing the eldest larson daughter. i was lame and forgot to bring my camera this weekend, so i shant have a single photo to post. but here are some lil' highlights:

my sister's cooking --- rock on!
my daughter's constant giggly b/c she adores her cousin.
just being around the sister is a good, good thing. and her basement guest room is great b/c it's pretty much windowless and therefore you sleep very, very heavily b/c it's dark, all the time. so nice!

the falls of sioux falls are very pretty and there is a cool tower to view things at great heights -- however the morrell slaughterhouse/processing plant is located UPWIND of the falls so the stink was horrible. and here is a little tidbit i found out about the plant.

gross. and notice i capitalized the word "upwind" earlier. well being downwind of this plant and most likely the incinerating that was going on...holy crap. and i LIKE meat. but holy crap, the smell...

but it's always nice getting away, even if it is only for 24 hours. and now i have to go to bed b/c tomorrow is production and darn it anyhow, i've got a newspaper to produce.

well thomas, there is land. and some of it is bad. not bad as in "badass," but just bad as in "they have not repaired this road and they should."
