  • Greenway Bike Trail

    Sioux Falls, SD, August 2025 I started out the day watching the birds from the back window. We had quite the variety. Unfortunately, Mackie slept through it.

  • It’s a Blue Bird, not a Bluebird!

    Lake Vermillion State Recreation Area, SD, August 2025 We planned to rent paddle boards to putter around the lake today.

  • Badlands National Park

    Interior, SD, July 2025 Kate put together a plan to do everything within about 100 miles, except John ruined her plan by pointing out that her route bypassed most of the Badlands National Park.
