Happy Thanksgiving from all of us here at The Barn!
Sorry it's late, but I finally figured out how to log back into the blog!
The Christmas Party is scheduled for December 13th this year. Bring a gift and steal your neighbor's. Hope to see you all there.

Wow! It is summer today!
I've not been keeping up on this blog like I should and probably have lost all those that were interested to begin with.
But, just in case someone decides to look at this page again I'll post something worth while.
The 4th of July is just around the corner and as you all know, the local fireworks display is held on our property. We've been working our rear ends off (especially the boys and Dad) to get the place tidy and nice for anyone who might show up.
It will be held here once again this year at dusk. "At dusk" generally means the show begins between 9:30 PM and 10:15 PM.
We will be asking for donations at the gate again this year. All donations go to help pay for the fireworks for this year and next. Donations are NOT required to get in to see the show, but if you can spare a dollar or two it's greatly appreciated. Everyone knows that the show can be seen for miles around anyway!
Again, we will ask that you refrain from shooting off your personal fireworks as it leaves a huge mess for us to clean up and could easily become a hazard. It usually takes us until next year to get it under control and we certainly don't want anyone getting hurt.
Hope to see you all here!
If you have any questions feel free to give us a call at 605-787-5458 or 605-743-6031. You can also email any questions to rphelps@rushmore.com or jeaniep@rushmore.com

2009 Rally Update
I haven't been keeping up on the blog for some time and didn't realize people actually READ this thing! I'm happily surprised to find out that some do.
We are currently in the middle of the 2009 Sturgis Bike Rally. As with every year, a lot of our friends have returned but we are missing some as well.
Things are running smoothly and we've all been having a good time. It's always wonderful to see people we haven't seen for a year and some have been absent even longer than that.
We had a thunderstorm this evening and power was off for a couple of hours. It's never good for business but it is kinda fun. We all get to sit around in the dark and talk in hushed tones. Well, we sit around in the dark but we are rarely hushed. For some reason it feels kinda cozy and a little adventurous.
The storm predicted quarter sized hail and 70 mph winds. We had some high winds but no hail. Not sure how the rest of the rally goers fared but hope all are safe and able to find dry clothes.
Other than this evening the weather has been mostly cooperative. We've had some cold nights and mornings but it finally decided to warm back up.
I hope to post more before the rally ends. I haven't been taking pictures this year and would greatly appreciate any pictures people would like to send so I can post them here.

Long Time No Blog
Hi everyone!
I apologize for not posting since last year. I haven't been working at the Barn so haven't been keeping up on the happenings as well.
The Barn has already hosted one of the biggest parties of the year. Gina and Rob host a party every June and did it again this year. Everything turned out wonderful and everyone had a wonderful time. We want to extend a special thank you to Rob, Gina and Holly.
Saturday, June 20th The Barn will be the last stop on a poker run. We are looking forward to seeing everyone.
Saturday, June 27th The Barn is hosting their annual golf tournament. We will be playing in Hot Springs this year. Bring your clubs, meet us there and kick our butts. I can guarantee you won't even have to cheat!
Saturday, July 4th is... You guessed it, the 4th of July! We will be having our regular celebration again this year with the fireworks and food and fun! Hope to see you then.
June Birthdays
18th - Robert
26th - Denny
Until next year. I'm only kidding! I hope.

Goodbye 2008 Hello 2009
Look at that sly look. He knows better than to try to share with the baby!
Fourth of July at The Barn.
Rally in the hills.
Rally in Wyoming?
Rally at The Barn!The above are just a few examples of friends and family throughout 2008.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! (almost)
We will soon be walking into 2009!
2008 was a good year for us. We met a few new friends and managed to keep all our old ones. Don't ask me how we did that. It must be that our friends are very forgiving and patient.
We hope everyone had a happy and healthy time for the holiday season. That doesn't include healthy eating though, so you might still fit our criteria.
The Christmas Party at the Barn went over great. Everyone had a great time and the food was wonderful.
I hope everyone makes it out to ring in the new year with us tonight. We have tons of fun cracking "Last year..." jokes. "Hey Robert! I ordered that drink last year!"
There is nothing scheduled for 2009 other than the annual stuff like the rally and the 4th of July fireworks. If you have a hankering for a party but don't want to deal with people in your house bring 'em on down. Contact Robert, Jean or Holly at 605-787-5458
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Where did September Go?
Hello everyone.
I just realized I did not post a single thing in September. I've been staying home with the baby and haven't been keeping up on the happenings at The Barn nearly as much as I should.
Darts have started and we have seven teams that come spend every Tuesday evening with us. They all seem to have a great time and I wish I could take time to have a team of my own. I'm a horrible shooter but it's not about winning at The Barn (for me), it's about having fun. Don't quote me on this but I believe we have a traveling Cricket league that plays on Friday nights.
I don't have my birthday book in front of me so I can't list the birthdays for September or October right now. Imagine that. If you go back to past posts, you'll see that I do this every month.
We've been lucky to have some of our irregular, regulars come back since the rally. K-Bob and Linda stayed with us the first part of September with their babies, Marshall and Charlie. The two cute little Yorkies were so good while they were here.
Hopefully I will get my birthday book out and near the computer so I can start transferring those that we missed and those that are upcoming. Until then...
