Brrrrr it's cold up here

I have been pretty much in hibernation for a while now but I wanted to let everyone know I haven't forsaken this blog. After the New Year I hope to be back to my click happy self, but in the meantime I wanted to share a few South Dakota fun shots.

 You Know You Are In South Dakota When
The gas station / market has hitching posts!

Last month on our way to Sioux Falls we had to make an unexpected stop in Presho, SD.  The vibrant reflection in the windows caught my eye and then when I got out to take the picture it dawned on me what the posts are for....LOL

Brrrrrrr it's cold up here!

Here is a map of yesterday's highs for the area. Thankfully today is much warmer, it is actually 36 degrees but rather windy so it only feels like 24.

 

 So we bundle up!

Only go out when we have too!

And snuggle with a loved one!
I finally got a semi decent photo of birds, it just took going to the library where these cute little guys live.

So what do you do when it is cold outside?

Revisiting Art Alley

I have shared photos of this great alley before Here, but have discovered that the art in Art Alley changes quite regularly, so here is another visit with some new shots of the artwork.

This was painted on a garbage disposal bin

I absolutely love the message on this last art piece.

Rapid City Zombie Walk

To think I almost totally missed this. Today was the annual Zombie Walk. There is a great article about today's zombie walk written by Jack Siebold on the local TV stations community news site My Town, you can read it here. I didn't know anything special was going on when I headed down town to do THIS.
I thought it was a bit strange when I saw this young man, but hey it is nearing Halloween, so it didn't shock me too much.

That is what was going on in our city.
