Arriving in town, we had 7 days to rest, get back to work on our marketing business, and relax in more comfortable digs.
Candlewood Suites has become our new home when we need a week or more to stay. They're in all the big cities, and it's always what we look for because the prices are low, but still just as nice as a Hilton or Marriott, you get a full size kitchen, desk space for two, good Wi-Fi, a gym, and free laundry facilities.
- Sash paid a visit to Ride Empowered, a shop for women's motorcycle gear run by Doris Schumacher. Doris recently opened the shop last March, and balances her life between husband, kids, and her business.
- We had several boxes of mail, packages, and work stuff waiting for us at our hotel that we had to get caught up on.
- Sash and I visited Lisa & Randy Brouwer. Lisa runs "Full Throttle Living", a consulting business for corporations, and teaches an MSF course in the evenings.
- Sash has been on the phone coordinating with other businesses and media people for our time in Sturgis.
- I've been working on websites and writing blog content
- We were told the Fried Egg Burger at JL Beers was the best, but I swear the one at Taphouse 41 was better. JL Beers has the edge on craft beer selection, however.
Today, we're leaving for Mitchell, SD...
