Good morning South Dakota!

I have the same problem Trent, I'm a little red-faced today after a little too much sun yesterday. Sure was a nice weekend!

A couple scenery shots from the weekend... First one is at the Missouri River overlook on Hwy 37 on the SD/NE border near Springfield, SD.

Second shot is my favorite view of Nebraska... in the rearview mirror, lol. Taken at the border on Hwy 15 just south of Vermillion, SD.

Good morning South Dakota, welcome to June! Hey, isn't that the bridge out by Niobrara Nebraska?

I remember going across that once, when I was dating someone whose family was from Santee, NE. I also remember that bridge being on the NBC nightly news, on their "Fleecing of America" segment, for being such a waste.

A waste? But I would have gotten wet trying to get across the river if it wasn't there!

It is a pretty cool looking bridge from the scenic overlook... at least they let you see what they waste money on!

Howdy, howdy! Nice and sunny here today.

We had storms to the north and east of us, just some rain and a few lightning bolts here. Looks like you guys to the south got the brunt of it.

Good afternoon. A shift and a half away from vacation. Woo Hoo!

Heading out to mow. Well fix a tire on the trailer and then mow I guess.
