We went into Pawhuska and walked through the Pioneer Woman Store yesterday. It was packed with people who had come there just for that! It is a beautiful store/restaurant that has been updated, yet still fits in the old style town. A small parade made itself down the street and lasted about 5 minutes. Charming, but small!
Afterwards we went and took photos of the movie set (They are filming the Killers of the Flower Moon). Then over to the Chamber of Commerce for a delicious hot dog and the best home-made apple pie I believe I have ever eaten! I am living in Foraker and if you look at the map, you will see where it is in relation to Pawhuska.
I spent time with Sister Barbara Johnson indexing a grave yard to send to find a grave this week. Wild, White mushrooms grew nearby. We are seeing turtles on the road constantly. I found a mouse in the laundry room and disposed of it (Not a problem... my mission to Hawaii made this a piece of cake). We are following another missionary couple through a low water bridge and I am wondering if this is such a good idea!
Later on Saturday we visited the TallGrass Prairie Preserve (not far from our home). Those bison looked fat and well fed! The prairie grass reminds me of a meadow in the tall Uinta's. It is definitely not the grass the cattle feed on. The grass along the roads was very tall.
We are enjoying our mission and serving with such amazing elders and sisters! So fun. Time to get ready for church (it is a 45 minute drive).
