Brenden in North Dakota!

Brenden has sent a few photos of his adventures in Cavalier, ND.

This is where he works. He probably has the only Massachusetts license plate in the whole state.

This is where he lives - lower apartment on the right.

This is where he golfs - Cavalier Country Club. He says it is pretty nice.

He has even had people come and visit. Dani - his girlfriend has been there twice.

And a camp friend who lives in Bismarck - Joey Wheelen.

When Dani was there, they went to Grand Forks to see UND play BC in Hockey at the famous Raplh Engelstad Arena. It is the most expensive hockey rink in the world. BC beat Michigan State and UND.

Brenden's First Deer!

Brenden wanted to go deer hunting this fall and took gun training. This led to getting a deer rifle which led to him getting his first deer - an eight point buck. Thanks go to his Uncle Mike Olson, Uncle Dave Powers and his cousin, David Olson.
