Alley 5.5 – Art in the Alley
On my first morning in Bismarck ND, I was having breakfast with my Chamber contact, David Leingang. As we were finishing, he said “I want to show you Art Alley, one of our new projects.” I agreed, so as we stepped out of the restaurant, we crossed 5th Street and arrived at what I later learned […]

A young lad of 5 or 6 approached, accompanied by an elderly woman who I took to be his grandmother. The boy was excited and […]
River Remembrance Story 1
This was told by one of the really fun couples I met: All I will reveal is the the husband often has to get up very early to do irrigation on his crops. When he returns, he often finishes the night on the couch to avoid waking his wife, and sleeps a little later to compensate. […]
