With fairly decent weather this weekend, we decided to do a little around town sightseeing! Saturday we drove up the river road and stopped at a couple of parks, then found the Double Ditch Indian Village sight. It's a bunch of mounds by the river with signs labeling the different parts of the village. The Mandan tribe lived there from 1490- the late 1600's when the whole village was wiped out by smallpox. Very pretty views! Ben was out of sorts and decided to stay in the van, and Matt was sleeping after a long sleepover night at his friend's.

I took this picture for Matt...this guy looked exactly like Napoleon Dynamite :)
