Freezing rain slamming against my motel room window woke me up about 3:30am this morning. Spent last night in Wagner, South Dakota which is South of Pierre. Road conditions are terrible now and only expected to get worse as the day goes on. Local forecasts for the next 24 hours are for an additional 2 feet of snow. In April? I expected to run into snow as I approached the Bitterroot Mountains, but not here in the plains. Depending on how long I am stranded here, I may have to alter some of my plans. I will just have to wait and see what happens. Since I have little else to do today, I will give you some homework. This has nothing to do with Lewis and Clark, but it is at least loosely related to history. Here is the assignment. The last time a U.S. President was assassinated was on my 19th birthday. When will I be 25,000 days old? Also, did you ever notice that my name backwards is Leon Revilo? What would yours be? I guess you can tell, it’s a SNOW DAY !!!!! CLICK HERE to contact me with your...
See if you can determine the location of these photos. I realize most of the students will not know who Tom Brokaw is, so they may have to ask for some help from someone “older”. That’s OK to ask for help when you need it. CLICK HERE to contact me with your answers.

Where is this? What is this? What is the source of your answers? Check this series of photographs and research to determine what facility it is and where it is located. I am also interested in the methods used to answer these questions. If the answer doesn’t show up in a few days, I will post the longitude/latitude for the site and see if that helps. Have fun with this homework. CLICK HERE to contact me with your answers. 04-05-2013 I have received one correct answer so far. Who else can figure it out?

The expedition’s winter camp was established on the East side of the Mississippi River,directly across from the confluence with the Missouri. Why didn’t they make their camp at the confluence or at least on the West side of the Mississippi? I will give you a few days to ponder this question, send me a comment with your answer, and then we will reveal the reason. Good luck with your research.
