I haven’t been on vacation in such a long time. Now I’m off adventuring in the and around the badlands!
I just woke up a bit ago, this makes day 3, Monday and Tuesday were spent driving up here. The mountains and stones and trees and birds and streams and really everything out here are so beautiful and so little like what I’m used to.
We woke up at 3am yesterday to try our hands at some astral photography and it was completely amazing. I had no idea what I was doing and I managed to get FIVE meteors in one shot!! Incredible.
We got on the road after that and wound our way across the states, taking time to have lunch at Falls Park in Sioux Falls, a little ways into South Dakota.
When we finally entered the black hills it was so spectacular. The landscape just suddenly changes and it’s rolling and undulating all around you. The roads just kept going on into forever but wow. It was so gorgeous
We passed by the tip of the Badlands, but didn’t get many pictures since we’ll be ending our trip there. Plenty of time for that later
We passed through Deadwood to get to our cabin for the night, and wow. I’m expecting to try to hike as much of this place as I can, the mountains here are gorgeous!
Okay, that was the check in, who knows when I’ll have WiFi again haha, so I’ll pop back in when I get the chance for another photo dump 😊
