under god, the people rule

south dakota, great faces, great places.
we camped in the black hills, one of the most sacred places for the lakota sioux. we woke up at 4 am to earth shaking thunder and lightning and pouring rain. would we float away, in our tent?
the history is palpable in these black hills. we stood still and listened to the wind in the trees, who else over the years had stood here, listening?
probably some gold prospectors, like these two! deadwood.
south dakota is a place you should all see. packed here in the middle of the usa, it is full of monuments, weird roadside attractions, truly mind blowing prairie land, the black hills, the badlands.




the badlands.
