South Dakota

Snow...I feel like I'm becoming kind of a frozen precipitation magnet.



It's the main drag in Deadwood! And it's still snowing.



Ah yes. The not-so-Black Hills. Very pretty, if a little slow going in the slush.



And it didn't look like I was going to get a break, weather-wise. So I elected to ditch my Mt. Rushmore plans and get back to I-90. And of course, as soon as I got on the freeway, the sun came out.



De Smet! Home of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her husband "Manly"!



One awesome thing about South Dakota: the bumper stickers. Better even than Texas.

  1. For the record, Jane Fonda went to North Vietnam during the Vietnam war and let them take PR photos of her sitting on their anti-aircraft guns. That counts as being an American traitor. Seems like a nice enough lady, though.

  2. Glad to see someone else has been to DeSmet ... I've been there 3 times (and I'm from PA). Good thing I married a patient man! :) He tolerates it, as do our two sons ... but they're only 2 and 7. I have a feeling my years of going to the Ingalls Homestead might be limited! haha! Not many guys are into Little House.

    Love your blog ... we just drove from PA to Bozeman and back to PA this past summer (with the kids). Awesome road trip ... following your blog is like going back!
