South Dakota

One of the most unusual drives in the world is through the awesome Badlands of South Dakota.  This unique drive extends from just west of Kadoka, S.D. some forty miles to Wall, S.D.
 

Prairie Dogs - Ranch Store
Kadoka, S. Dak.
These curious little animals may be seen free in their natural habitat at the Ranch Store.  They live in organized prairie dog towns, where they build their mounds, which are the entrances to their homes.  They eat grass and small plants.

Autumn's Splendor

Standing by its placid pond and framed by glowing autumn foliage, this old mill is a reminder of our forefathers' quieter, more peaceful way of life.

Sunlight like soft gold burnishes the autumn foliage and the country road appears tranquil, shadowy, in this Dextone Beauty Scene.

When The Leaves Do Fall.
