South Dakota

I spent the weekend with Harlen traveling over a thousand miles to a bull sale in south Dakota. We were exhausted when we arrived home last night at 12:30 in the morning. It was a fun trip though. We drove and drove and drove. We awoke early Saturday morning(4am) and drove 4 hrs so that we would have enough time to find a bull we liked. The only problem is they had received 18 inches of snow the day before and postponed the sale 3 hrs. Lost winks.....We found a great bull though and made it back to the hotel a lot later than we had planned, just to wake the next morning and drive 10 1/2 hrs home. Traveled through West Yellowstone and saw wild Buffaloes and Big Horn sheep, about 3 ft of snow on the side of the road. Listened to conference again on the way. When do you think those adversity and eternal life talks will get any easier? I find myself getting better at toning them out.
