Words of Advice for the JunkFest girls...

COUNTDOWN TO JUNKFEST!!!

Here are just a few words of advice for my JunkFest girlfriends who've been slaving away these spring and summer months creating awesome junk masterpieces for ya all!

FIRST OF ALL REMEMBER:

YOU HAVE ALOT OF FANS!

(And I'm your biggest cheerleader!)

Even though time is ticking away and getting closer to the big day...don't "pressure up"!

Take time to smell the flowers...

Don't forget to eat!

Cause soon there'll be time for this...

(I can taste it!)

BUT...JUST STAY FOCUSED!

...Cause Autumn is almost here!

So, junk lovers everywhere!

This junker's journey....(a.k.a. my summer vacation)

Even a junker has to get away every now and then to clear the mind and refresh the creative soul....come along with me on my journey to western North Dakota because, quite frankly, it looks like that's the only place I'm getting to this summer!!
Most locals would agree with me when I say that you have to be a native of North Dakota to really appreciate the wide open spaces, flat lands with very few trees, harsh winters and pesky summer mosquitoes! If you're heading to North Dakota, then Medora- located in the heart of the Badlands, is a must-see. The Badlands are the exception to the above statement. There are gorgeous rocky buttes (our version of mountains), lush greenery, wildlife (no bears or rattlers) and there's even a river that runs through it!

Even though the pace is relaxed and laid back, there's plenty to do and see. But be warned, the horses are fast....

And they have a tendency to switch directions on you without warning!

This one below is more my speed!

And this bronc rider seems to be suspended in time....?

You'll find shopping...

...and top-notch food and drinks...

But for me, it's all about the flowers...(well, okay it's about the food and drinks too, but I do enjoy the flowers!)

Especially the junkified flowers...

For those extended stays, you can even get your laundry done...but you may have to allow extra time...

Western North Dakota....it's not the edge of the earth....but close to it!!
