More Pics

I know we left Yellowstone behind last week, but I just had to post a few more pics. We'll get the one's of the Badlands up soon. That too is truly an AWESOME place.

Before I sign off today though, I have to say that both Jan and I just loved the West. Especially South Dakota. It was like the heart of America. The real America and for me the one that as a kid in England I grew up excited about.

The West still has that feeling about it that it's out there, on the frontier. The people who live out there seem to be from that genetic stock of adventurers and risk takers. People who make things happen, but still holding their history close. Maybe I'm romanticizing, but I thought it was just great. Great to see the beauty and the space. Great to still see real cowboys and ranches, herds of cattle and horses roaming the range... and space...lots and lots of space
