Rosehill Cemetery

Like hundreds of other cemeteries scattered around North Dakota the churches are gone, but not forgotten. This is the Rosehill Mennonite Cemetery north of Alsen and east of Munich. Some of Jo's mothers family are here.



Dresden ND

Last Sunday we went to the Cavalier County Museum in Dresden for the annual fundraiser breakfast. We had french toast, pancakes and the world famous Langdon Locker sausage.
Took a tour of some of the buildings.


The old Peterson Cabin.



The old cook wagon.

Real old iron.

The School House.


If you notice this banner does not say "under God". The "under God" part was added in 1954. It also only has 48 stars.


Africa looks a little bit different today. Remember the Belgian Congo or French West Africa?


I sure love old books!


They have a caboose on display.

The old ones used be open to the tracks below.



It would have been fun to ride up here.



The old Catholic Church.


Some nice stone work.


The inside is part of the Museum. I could wonder about here for hours, but we had to leave.

On the road again.

Good Old Red Meat and Potatoes.

Grilled up some steaks and potatoes at Jo's folks house.


Getting hungry?




Tennis Anyone?

We thought that it might be fun to introduce the boys to some tennis. It's been over 20 years since I've played. Unfortunately I have not improved in my time off. They seemed to have a good time on the court.

Don't I look graceful.

It was very hot out.









Reese got tired and had to check out the playground.
