Our favorite Macy pic....

Haven't been to see the Corn Palace? You're missing out. A trip home isn't complete without a visit to the Palace. We even took pics:

Karaoke Night in Artesian

My cousin Megan got married a few weeks ago. As a pre-party, the Yusten clan headed up to the small, small, small town of Artesian, SD to do a little karaoke. It was a great time as you can see from the pics below:


The girls - me, Jeanna, Heidi, and Tera.

Why we love Wyoming....

(Click on the picture - it's better when it's bigger.)

My dad, his fiance (Sandy), her daughter (Serena), my sister (Katie), and brother (Ryan) came to visit for Easter. We took them up the Bighorn Mountains on Saturday to go for a hike. We had initially planned on taking them to Rifle lake, but that trail was closed. So, we headed down to Tie Hack Reservoir (& Dam). Insert a thousand dam jokes... we did. The best part of the hike was near the above pic. We were hanging out (taking bathroom breaks) and enjoying the view... All of a sudden Ryan started down the hill and found a tupperware container. At first, we thought it was a first aid kit. However, we were wrong. It was a GeoCache. Basically, there are people who travel the world (or state) looking for these things. Ryan just stumbled upon it. We were so proud. So, you open it up and you get to take something out, but you have to put something in to. We took kleenex (we had used ours up during the bathroom break), kyle took a belt buckle, and we took something else, but I can't remember what. We left my dad's business card (just in case anyone needs a tractor), some chapstick, and a granola bar. If you get the chance and have a GPS, you should play this game.

road race season begins....

Tonight was the first road race of the season.... the 7th Street Challenge... It's only 1.8 miles, but 1/2 of it is uphill and not just uphill, up the steepest hill in town: 7th Street. It wasn't as bad as I expected, and I didn't finish last. A friend that I work out with ran with me, I think Kyle has retired from the road race circuit. No medals this run, and I finished at around 18 minutes. I'm happy with that. I'm not sure when the next race I can make it to is, probably June....
