South Dakota Part 2

When we were stopped in the middle of the buffalo herd I took a short video with my iPhone.

South Dakota

Some dear friends invited Madame Le Chef and me to visit them at their vacation home in the Black Hills outside of Rapid City, SD. Even their backyard is mighty scenic.

It turned out that the Bad Lands were only about an hour's drive away. I had heard references to them in various Westerns but didn't realize that they are beautiful.

The Bad Lands are the floor of a primordial ocean.

Our friends have a friend who owns a Buffalo ranch. We went to visit her and she drove us in a Chevy Suburban, without doors, into the middle of the herd and then turned off the motor.

Aside from the mosquitoes, it was wonderful.


 Sylvan Lake is in the extended neighborhood and it's beautiful.

 Finally we had to visit two man made wonders, Mount Rushmore and The Crazy Horse Memorial. It seemed appropriate to photograph the presidents from the cafe.

It's going to take a long time to finish the memorial.
