[QUOTE=Bruce Day;6737]In preparation for going north to go south, Dakota that is, we need to mention that we use the occasion for educational broadening. Instead of pheasant hunting all the time, we devote one afternoon to tour the Anne Hathaway cottage in Wessington Springs, the closest town.

In the evenings, we attend the opera at the Springs opera house.

John is joining us from the east, and we want to show off that we have culture too.- I'm sure John D. appreciates the evenings' festivities- the Opera House sounds intriguing- sorry to have to ask, but who was Anne Hathaway?

As far as the billboard for the SD "Larger Roosters" sort of reminds me of the restaurant/bar in Ocean City MD (where one of my married sisters lives)- named after the famous "Foghorn Leghorn" Chicken--whose catch phrase "Aah say Boy, Aah say-dat weasel gonna getcha"!! I guess culture is where you find it- good luck with those "Big Roosters"--
