How strange it is for them to see so much open space on the flat North Dakota prairie!  How odd it is to live in a soddie, a home built out of the hard dry bricks of earth cut from the earth!<br \/>\nEach child has brought a gift from their grandparents back in Europe\u2026 a gift to remind them that living as a Jew is the most precious treasure no matter where they are.
