Rapid City Regional Airport

I am finally home and just finished uploading all the photos I took with my camera during my recent trip to Arizona. Here are a few more shots of our small airport.

I was really glad that not only did we have fair weather for both the flight out and the return flight, but also that neither airport was overly crowded. Before my flight on the 13th I had plenty of time to look around and take a few shots.

Flying south

Hello from sunny Arizona! This will be my last post here on South Dakota photo for the next ten days, as I am enjoying warmer weather.  However, I will be posting via my cell phone to my other blogs.
Here are a few scenes from Rapid City Regional Airport, taken yesterday as I waited for my flight.

Remembering Warmer Days

I had planned to go out yesterday or this morning to capture some scenes from Rapid City's historic district. However, with the cold front that came in I decided to stay in and keep warm. It is so cold that yes even the dog bundles up.

I figured I was going to wind up skipping this week, then I remembered I have some photos from warmer days.  So into my archives I went and found some fun shots from September 2011 when my family took a weekend trip to see Mount Rushmore. 

Mount Rushmore is about a half hour drive from Rapid City so many visitors choose to stay here when they come to see Mt. Rushmore.

If you ever get a chance to visit be sure to take a drive through the open range of Custer State Park. Just be warned the mules are very friendly.

While you are in the area if you enjoy history another fun place to visit is 1880 Town. It is about an hour east of Rapid City and is home to many of the props for the film Dances With Wolfs.

Dreaming of warmer days 1880 Town.
