Today, after a brief workout at the Rapid City Y, we drove through the Badlands. All the way we were being chased by tornadoes, and in fact one hit Rapid City just a couple of hours after we departed. That would have been ugly...a lat machine pulldown bar blown up my butt...

Badlands a real cool rock formation. You enter the park with this huge, expansive canyon below the road. It has all sorts of colors...reds, magenta, yellows...and then about half way through the park, the whole scene flips, and you are down in the valley on a road and the cliffs are all above you. Very cool indeed.

We saw a surprising number of animals...well, ok, just a few bunnies which I'm certain only exist to feed the rattlesnakes. There were a few hikers, and if this isn't "desolation hiking" then I don't know what is. Definitely worth the trip if you're out that way.

Is there a place called "goodlands"? Lumpy out
