Monday, we were instructed to wear ugly holiday sweaters to work for a company Christmas card photo. I didn’t even own one, but a quick trip to Kohl’s over the weekend solved that dilemma. I picked out the most garish sweater I could find….

Holy crap. I haven’t written a blog post since LAST YEAR! I apologize for being so remiss in my duties. I’m happy to report I survived my first week back in the trenches of Corporate America unscathed. Unlike back in August, I didn’t go…

I’ve said it before, though never using a fruit analogy: the weather here is bananas. Take Tuesday, for instance. Our day started out quietly enough; we decided to go for a hike along the Sunday Gulch Trail in Custer State Park. Can I just…

We moved from Hawaii to Ohio when I was 8 y/o, and actual weather was such a novelty, I decided I wanted to become a meteorologist. Fast-forward 10 years to that Meteorology 101 class in my freshman year of college and I changed my tune because there was SO MUCH MATH. I just wanted to look at clouds! My fascination with weather has never gone away, and all these years later, I finally bought an actual weather station. It will never be more than a fun hobby, but I'm pretty excited nonetheless. . . . . #sdwx #rapidcity #rapidcitysd #blackhillsbadlands #hifromsd #weather #weatherstation
Historical scrub oak in Cleghorn Canyon. This tree was already 100 years old when Thomas Pendelton and JW Patterson were killed by indians while gathering wood nearby on August 3, 1876. In 1972 the Rapid City flood destroyed homes a few hundred yards away. This tree still stands, and in 1976, a memorial was erected on the spot. Interesting glimpse into Rapid City history! . . . . #rapidcity #rapidcitysd #blackhillsbadlands #hifromsd
I get to visit a lot of cool places for my job. This one was delicious, too. Any interview that begins with a complimentary truffle and ends with a hug is a good one! . . . . #blackhills #blackhillssd #blackhillsnationalforest #blackhillsbadlands #discoverblackhills #hifromsd #weareevergreen #nichepublishing
I dropped everything - literally quit typing mid-sentence - and ran out of the office to capture this amazing sky. I mean, wouldn't you? . . . . #rapidcity #rapidcitysd #blackhillsbadlands #hifromsd #sdwx #skyporn #sunset
