That’s what our partner at Provenance Gems in Florida said when Scott came to view the Automatic “We the People” watch.

Sturgis Rally Celebrates Its 80th I’m sure we can all agree that 2020 has been a very strange year. It was upsetting for us and many others, when the world shut down and worrisome for small towns like ours when we were unsure if we’d be open for summer. Businesses in The Black Hills have…
