Missing North Dakota
10:02 PM Edit This 5 Comments »
On March 17th we jam packed a Penske truck and 3 cars and moved from North Dakota. And while coming back to Utah has been wonderful in many ways (warmer weather, family, warmer weather), I find myself missing Grand Forks, North Dakota. I miss all of the wonderful friends we made. I mean we made some true,
honest, and loyal friends that were wonderful!
I miss the beautiful ice formations on the windows. I miss the playgroups and activities. I miss the (constant) wind when you take your kids to one of the many parks. I miss when the snow starts to melt and there are GREAT puddles to drive and jump through. I miss going to Canada just for a change of scenery (even though the scenery was the same).
I miss the wide open sky and the flowing clouds. I miss the rows of corn and wheat fields for miles and miles. And I love those old barns and silos! I miss the Grand Forks Primary! I miss going out to the Air Force Base to see friends, go bowling, going to the simulator (AWESOME).
While North Dakota was not exactly the Garden of Eden, I have to admit that I found a lot of things to love. Thank you to all of you that contributed to that! sigh.......
