It could be a nice way to get to know fellow members and neighbors and have some fun. |

Just FYI American pioneer corps hike this Saturday on the Mah Deeh Heey trail, starting at the Wolf Trailhead just South of Watford City. Going to do about 7.5 miles. Come out and shake out your gear, and shake a leg...probably literally. Starts at 10AM Saturday 1-23-2021. Bring ruck, rifle, and cold weather gear. Here is the pin drop for the start. Maah Daah Hey Trail, Wolf Trailhead 18th St NW, Arnegard, ND 58835 https://maps.app.goo.gl/bM85HnsD34HeJCpL7 |

Anyone else up for a hike/ruck? Pick a trail in your AO and let's go! Alternatively, lets arrange a group meet up in central ND somewhere for bbq, beer, burgers, and bourbon. Attached File |

Over on the east side, we have the North Country Trail that goes through the Sheyenne National Grasslands. I go camping out there quite often. Might be another spot for a meet up? Edit with a better hotlink for the area. |

Probably a pavilion in the area to bbq and bullshit at after too. Anyone familiar with that area? |

Usually stop at the Duner' for a beer but haven't been across the street to the other place to eat yet. Prefer to cook at the campsite. Will have to check it out. Attached File |

I became more stressed. They began having me teach newbies how to do what took me years of my life to learn, The deeper I became involved in the management side of the new company the more I realized I didn't want to be part of it. I became aware that the greenies I was training were being started at 5 to 8 dollars more an hour that I was. I had been there for over 10 years. Then for the second time in 2 years the home I was living in had been sold and we needed to move again. The first I had lived in and managed for 12 years. The new offer put me in a beautiful home. Gave me a large raise, Put me in a unique place as a specialist crew with people I know. So I took it. Company owner accepted me like I am family. Big change. But so far I love it. |
