Description
..... In South Dakota!
This was a rest stop / scenic area as we crossed into the Missouri River valley near Chamberlain, SD. Saw this hottie walking her...ummmm...... dog(?). She looks familiar for some reason..... :-D
Just having a bit of fun with Poser and one of my photos on the laptop.
Well, today sucked - weather-wise.... Rain, fog, cold, all day long. We took the opportunity to visit an archeological dig and museum not far from our hotel. I'll post a photo or two. They have some of the best-preserved fossil remains of wooly mammoths in the world. I'm sure Art (adorety) would have found this as fascinating as I did. We also visited Wind Cave National Park.
While there, I spoke with a park ranger - his name was Rick..... Yes, really..... He was our cave tour guide, and a most fun and entertaining fellow. Anyway, I asked him about any locations where it would be OK to fly my drones. Not many.... SD is not a very drone-friendly state. He said there might be some places out away from the borders of Black Hills National Forest, but much of the area around here is either a state park, or falls under the jurisdiction of the National Park Service. He did say that I was doing the right thing by inquiring rather than just going out willy-nilly like some folks do. Anyway, I don't know if I'll get ant drone footage or not, but they're with us in case we do find a suitable location.
Hopefully Wednesday will be a better day - it was clearing off as the sun set today.
As always, thanks for dropping by, and for all your comments and support! We'll be back home this weekend.

Very very nice !!!
Nice to se you're a "law(n) abiding" citizen - ask first, then fly. However, I can't understand why a national PARK should be a "no fly" zone. What can they be hiding? Or is it the risk of fire hazard, or drone loss in trees, etc. where the wrecks can't be recovered? At any rate, best to avoid being shot down with an arrow (or bullet). As for your photo - love it! I've seen 1 or 2 others like it (one with a purple dragon peeing on the sign!). So, despite the rain, you got something fun done! Much appreciated! Hope you have good weather for the rest of your vacation! Keep up the good work! :-) (Still no 6 on the rating scale, or is it "ratting" scale?)
Outstandingly done my friend !!!
Great info and wonderful image with G4, Rod. I love it.
Looks like the girls are keeping a close eye on you.... since they received a strange note that you may be in danger there...well just have to watch and see.... next three familiar girls will be following you.....
have a good one!!
Good to see her doing it right, and keeping an eye out for you!!!
cool
Hehehe, this place is for my furkids, not for a cyberdoc - Thank's for this morning smile!
Like the way you merge photo's with poser characters!!!!
That's some pet! That's cool you got to see some mammoth fossils. I read about finds that are mixed remains with Columbian Mammoths and Wooly mammoths in South Dakota. There is a mammoth subspecies that may, in fact, be a hybrid offspring from Columbian and Wooly mammoths interbreeding. Anyway, hope your trip is not completely rained out.
Hey Rod, do you know if there's somewhere in the World, a moron exercise area ? :-D
From what I've seen lately pretty much every capitol city on the planet would fall into that category! LOL
so I guess to collect after him, she would be a magnet pickup tool. very humorous
Glad to see her in the proper area in the rest stop! LOL!
Great scene Rod! Looks like G4 is keeping close tabs on you while on vacation.
