Back at the ranch

Made it to the ranch, been here for a few days, riding horses, checking windmills, visiting friends and family, trying to figure out where things go from here. That's the hard part. For now, things go north, to south dakota and a particularly high and prominent bluff known as Harney Peak, 7,800 feet above sea level and the highpoint of SD. Then it will be south to Wyoming and more family and then New Mexico to visit the Mel the Shorter. I had hoped to visit the Corn Palace in Mitchel, South Dakota, but it is a bit out of my way, so I'll have to settle for CarHenge in Alliance, Nebraska (a replica of Stonehenge made of wrecked cars) and Wall Drug, South Dakota (home of the free cup of ice water).
