Well that didn't work as planned

Writer's picture: SueCanDoSueCanDo

So I accepted a "tasting room" position at Prairie Berry winery in Hill City SD, a few minutes from Mt Rushmore!


I had big dreams of having fun at work, then playing in the Black Hills on my days off. Unfortunately, that didn't happen as dreamed. I seldom poured wine or told the stories and more often bussed and washed dishes, cleaned the bathrooms and mopped the very large concrete floor.


I could go on and on but no need to repeat the negatives. Just know I lasted 90 days and finally hit the threshold of complete exhaustion. So I texted and received a response "yes"! My boss of the past two summers needs help for the rest of the summer in Flaming Gorge - I am "going home" to Utah for a few months, then off to Ohio area!


Love to all who are still following my adventures!
