Crazy

Here in South Dakota, it's been cold.  Just a few hours away, it's been snowing.  In May!!!  This is the kind of stuff that makes us wonder "Why oh why did my ancestors choose to live here?"

Yesterday I came across the answer in the Bismarck , at least for my great-grandma, Josie Scriver:

The Bismarck (ND) Tribune, Saturday, 16 April 1949, pg. 1

Insanity.  There's no other reason to explain it.

(OK, I guess she really liked her sister Selma in Mott, North Dakota.)
