Medora Musical And Badlands, North Dakota - July 2011





 The above pictures are taken of the badlands from the scenery taken surrounding the Medora, North Dakota area.  It was a lovely evening to take in the Medora Musical which is Country music and comedy intertwined along with the history of Theodore Roosevelt who came to North Dakota and settled into this beautiful land as a young man.  Its a great show that they have every summer all summer and have had it for years and years...this is our second time to see it.  It is worth the time and money.  We went to the "Pitchfork Fondue" Dinner before the show (by the way, the show is in an outdoor ampitheatre).  The picture below shows the pitchforks they use to BBQ the steaks on over an open fire.  Every person, young and old gets a HUGE (probably 12-14 oz.) steak along with a large baked potato with all the trimmings, baked beans, cole slaw, fresh fruit, fresh veggies with dipping sauce, garlic bread, brownies, punch or water or coffee.  







 Sylvia Fletcher (www.mylipsdontmove.com) is the best ventriloquist I've ever seen or heard.  She was excellent.  You'll have to check her out.  I think that is her website.  She could do a show all by herself.  These two men below were men she chose out of the crowd to help with her skit.  It was quite comical. 


 This is the post office in Medora, ND.  Thought it was so cute.  Loved their little flower garden and cowboy boot bird houses!  These boots are made "more than just for walkin'"....


Tom's brother Steve loves to golf, so the next morning he went golfing, Tom drove the golf cart and went along for the ride...I took them and went back into town with our dog, Jack and poked around in the shops of Medora for a couple of hours.  Other than the Medora Musical and Pitchfork Fondue, Golfing, and touristy shops, Medora is strictly a tourist town...that is how the little town exists!!!  It is a fun place to shop and vist!
